Mine:

Five years of complete control to implement this, then representative parliamentary democracy.

- Absolute freedom of speech for the individual. no prohibition on for example incitement to violence or libel. Does not apply to corporations.
- Every government document and proceeding is public domain
- Government officials, elected representatives and their campaigns are not allowed to take money from anyone who is a lobbyist, or see them outside of a normal constituent meeting. Punishable by immediate loss of office.
- No subcontracting is allowed by government
- Tax code and the vast majority of laws in under a side of A4 and in plainer English
- Five-year copyright and patent regime. Everything out of copyright is put up on a free public library server. Patents restricted to machine-or-transformation test (no software, no drugs, no genes no business methods)
- No ability for the military to operate abroad
- Unemployed people who are fit to work are used as unskilled labourers by the government, or attend free training/school/work experience in exchange for having unemployment benefit anything above the living minimum. Otherwise house, food, utilities all paid directly.
- Free trade. No customs duties or protectionism (subsidies, tax breaks)
- Legalisation of drugs and all consenting sexual practices
- Large government space, alternative energy, and scientific research programme

I'd agree with you on Canada's speed-limit. The three-day trip i took to Ontario last September i had a three-day brainfart and forgot that my speedometer does, in fact, also measure kph, so i just tried to match what everyone around me was doing, and that was about 72 mph or so (closer to your recommended 120 kph)

Although realistically i think the existing system works: people are always going to try to go a little over the speed limit, and i know that, in Ohio for instance, police rule-of-thumb on speeding is usually 9 mph over the limit, so it ultimately works out: people will usually go about 70-75 in a 65 zone, but if you raise the actual limit, then people are just going to go faster still, while i agree with you that 75 mph or 120 kph is a good balance, the psychology of it (combined with a liberal rule-of-thumb for traffic cops) works in favor of the lower limit.

As for the second one, people "get off" on evidentiary loopholes less often then you'd think. Essentially if they're obviously guilty, it's going to come out from some point of evidence or other, and i think the rule isn't that "all illegally obtained evidence is invalid" but rather "all illegally obtained evidence that probably wouldn't have been obtained with legal methods is invalid."

Capitalist autocracy. I'd rule my country with iron fist for fast prosperity and development and just before dying democracy the shit up.

Yeah good point on the taxes. Maybe I could amend that to a system with a bit more in taxes...but if we're running a surplus, then the extra money is given back to the citizens. 

And yeah it would be interesting to see some of these in practice. Because some things like school vouchers look so good on paper, and even worked in test areas (Washington DC did some successfully a while back, or has charter schools or whaterver...I don't remember exactly) but would be cool to see if it works nationwide. 

Yeah you can do 120km/h no problem on our highways. The cop would have to be very bored on a slow day to ticket you for that. I've even gone past speed traps at 124km/h with my cruise control on and no ticket which is a good 15mph over the limit in American terms. But I'd just like it to be an official 120km/h speed limit and then from there cops could get a little more strict in giving out tickets when people try to go 130+km/h

Damn it, i knew i would miss one!

Whoever voted for anarchy, please post here. I want to see your ideas.

It would have a codified constitution and it would be a republic.

I don't like calling it a dictatorship because that implies some element of oppression and authoritarianism, which it would not have. There would be an elected parliament, but it would have considerably less power than most parliaments of today.

Capitalism, but the government would have certain responsibilities: protecting the environment, prohibiting misleading advertising, ensuring that no bribery and blackmail and such take place.

Guaranteed human rights in the constitution as follows:

• The government shall make no move to infringe upon free speech unless that speech presents a coherent threat to human lives. This is still true if the speech is considered "offensive".
• No religion shall have any force of law to enforce its beliefs.
• The armed forces, to the extent that they exist, will be composed entirely of volunteers, and no compulsory military service will exist.
• The government may not discriminate on basis of race, gender or sexual orientation or mandate that other organisations do so.
• The people shall have the right to keep and bear a single sidearm except where that possession marks a significant risk to safety (such as on an aeroplane or in a school)
• The judiciary shall be entirely independent, and the supreme court shall be elected by judges rather than legislators.
• Having said that, no judge shall discriminate on basis of race or gender, on penalty of being disbarred.
• All people have the right to a fair trial, with the exception of foreign militants in a warzone for whom there is no realistic possibility of bringing them to trial.
• The compulsory tax paid by any one person shall be capped at 30%. Those who wish to pay more may do so.
• The deficit shall be capped at 5% of GDP.
• The personal use of dangerous substances, in a private place, where they pose no threat to the people around you, will not be criminalised.
• The state will not regulate relationships between consenting adults, though the judiciary may act as an arbiter.
• All people have the right to protection from physical harm.
• No person shall be forced to undertake a medical procedure or otherwise alter their body, at any age, for any reason, by any person, with the exception of essential medical procedures on those too young to consent.

And more stuff, but I'm running out of ideas here.

The constitution can be amended by an 80% vote in Parliament, and a two-thirds vote from the population.

Good luck building an army bigger than 100 men
