  1. What is your taxation policy?

  2. Are you a democracy?

  3. If you are a democracy, how do you plan on solving the rational irrationality problems of democracy? Are you just planning on relying on a constitution, and merely hoping that it works this time around? Or are you planning something more intricate? Like what I refer to as a null vote system: basically, you take a census estimate of the populace, require that an elective representative get at least half of that number in votes, any seat which cannot get that many votes remains empty, and all empty seats automatically vote against the passage of new laws (maybe with some exceptions for approving an annual budget, etc).

What are your explicit agreements and disagreements with the work of Free Bankers such as George Selgin or Larry White, and what role do you think Free Banking plays in your ideally managed money supply?
