From what I've seen, letting people decide on what they want is never the world's best option. A wiser option is to subtly suggest to the people that what they want is what you offer while distracting them with shiny and/or blood-splattered displays of power and prowess. As such, I would be more than happy to run the state-owned penal coliseums, public executions, and also organise any festivals and parades in the honour of the wise and noble ruler. All I ask in exchange for this is a position on the cabinet with the title of "Minister of Public Conformation Assistance", if it pleases.
Yes this does please me.....very well it shall be made so.....make me proud my loyal subject!!OddlyThis said:

I make the motion that he be promoted to the Team Captain of the Department of Redundancy Department Team!
I say we set in place a Theocracy, and declare Mr. Rogers as God.

It's gonna be Utopia 'cuz we're all gonna be neighbors.
I also want to head up an engineering team that will dome the continent, and build massive engines in the underbelly so we can blast off into space and move to somewhere a lttle less retarded when the world goes to hell.

My opinion differs my good friend....Prepare the "Odin´s Spear"...see how they like death served very, very cold....etherlance said:
mandatory service in the armed forces to promote natural deference to authority in the population as well as a commitment to duty and patriotism to quell corruption in government. said government would be run by a democratically elected executive and council with immense power save the ability to alter an entrenched constitution, which would exist solely to guarantee the continued democracy. running for government would require a set of skill and intelligence tests, the criteria of which would be made by an entirely separate wing of government that is paid very well to eliminate chances of bribery and corruption. For safety, this 'test wing' would have numerous oversight committees and joining it would only be possible with a history of good merit in the civil service.Heatray said:
tl;dr 19th century Prussia with a democratic twist.
edit!
regarding the idea of everyone voting on everything: that sounds great in theory, but it means politicians will play to populist platforms that results in government thinking strictly in the short-term and making decisions based on popularity rather than how good an idea it is. it'd certainly suck if that happened in real life. /cough.
You are now the chief of political internal affairs and governmental internal security.Guy Montag said:

I dunno about names, but I know the system of government - anarchy!
It'll be like a massive social experiment: create paradise, then let us fuck it up. Perfect.
