Laws must undergo judicial review before their effective date. All legislators voting for laws found unconstitutional upon judicial review are subject to civil and criminal liability for attempted violation of civil liberties.

the assumptions here are flawed. Laws are force. laws are compelled behaviour backed up with threats of violence. There is already way too much force, violence and coercion in the world. THe question should be "if you could eliiminate one law" what would it be.

Complex human problems cannot be solved with force and violence. only with freedom , maximum liberty can humanity have the latitude to make moral choices and solve the problems of existence. The reason the US grew from into the freeest most prosperous wealthiest place on the planet from 1800-1914 was not because the people were better but because the gov to the greatest extent in human history before or since left the people alone.

To get a broadcast license, every media outlet must make public all of their financials, including all bank accounts, and every transaction, both deposits and withdrawals, must have an explanation. Same rule applies to parent companies and all senior executives of such outlets.

Any members who vote in favour of a war or wars (usually to kill brown people, or non whites, I guess) must โ€˜sacrificeโ€™ at least one member of their immediate family who has go on the front line and fight the said war. Members are permitted to go on the front line themselves if they so wish.

Letโ€™s see how many wars we have then. ๐Ÿค”

My new law:

Two old laws with amendments must be removed from statute to allow one new law. That new law should have a 10 year sunset clause. That should keep the buggers properly busy!

No politician should see their personal net worth increase more than the mean of their district/state they represent.

We'll see who are public servants and who's not.

Who's not; those who elect not to run.
