Yeah, I could get behind 90% of this. Find me that candidate/party and I would vote for them!

MODERATORS
You forgot to add abolishing slavery.
Considering that lemmy.world is pretty much just a ball of pearl-clutching white liberalism these days it's not very surprising.
I like a lot of your proposals,but I don’t think they will fix everything. Certainly an improvement though.
I don’t think the supreme court changes would fix issues with the court, and I think a 15 yr. limit could make it worse.
Each presidential term would get 2-3 nominations per term, allowing them to establish a majority if elected for 2 terms. Considering how powerful the court is, allowing a president to establish a majority simply by being in office for 2 terms isn’t great.

Perhaps this is just my European wallet talking, but $50k/y income = rich people. I'm sure there are states in USA where this is also true.
That sort of a change would totally crash tax income?

How about a wall around the crazy states, everyone can go and come for some years, after that, close it. Let them drown in guns and bubbles, I say. - a joke, apparently. I like the list, maybe fight all the cults where old guys marry several underaged girls, too. Oh yeah, they still exist.
