Looking at our how government mechanically (not the fundraising or lobbying, but the mechanics of passing legislation, Senate procedure, appointing positions, etc ) what rules or systems would you change? Is there anything in particular this has really bad incentives or is particularly open to producing really bad governance?

I often think of government in terms of game design where it is amazing how sometimes a tiny change in the rules, a tiny tweak to incentives, can change so much player behavior.

I don't like stunt no-sleep endurance streams (say past 24 hours). Not sleeping is not a badge of honor but it's so often boasted about.

To me it's like having a stream where you sit in the least ergonomic position possible and suffer through pain, or only eat twinkies every day for sustenance as long and keep going until the scurvy becomes unbearable.

Best of luck to you, I guess...
