Not only will you die, but so will your entire family and your pets.

This is so you are incentivised to stay alive.

Rules:

  • You cannot refuse this, refusal is also instant death, along with everyone mentioned above.

  • You have absolute authority over the entire world.

  • Every person has a non-removable brain implant that allows them to vote “Approve”, “Disapprove”, or “Abstain from vote”. These are completely immune to hacking.

  • Every above age 18 can vote.

  • You must maintain 50% + 1 vote of “Approve”, exactly 50% Approve / 50% Disapprove still means death for you. “Abstain” is not a vote means it isn’t counted.

  • The effects don’t apply until at least 50% of the population has voted. If you get more 51% disapproval, you’ll still live as long as theres less than 50% of the votes submitted.

  • If someone dies before voting, their vote automatically becomes “Disapprove” (So you don’t get any ideas of committing genocides)

  • Once a vote is submitted, it stays valid even if the person died. A person could also make their implant automatically change vote if they die. So someone could have their vote be set at “Approve” but becomes “Disapprove” upon death.

    50% of THE WORLD. You’re dead because I don’t believe anywhere near 50% of China or India cares about most of this list. This is a list of American issues.

      My list was preconceived in a comment I made a while back so you caught me there. But as I went back through the list , 80% of what I was proposing would instantly make the rest of the world a better place because the US is basically the villain of the world.

      The Jon Bolton execution alone would inspire parades across the Middle East.

        We’d first need to know who he is, so who is that guy and what did he do?

        That’s true. I mean, I’d welcome all those reforms. Still, at an political level, I’m not sure 50% of the world is politically savvy enough to actual appreciate what these reforms would do.

        At some level I’m pretty cynical about the ‘average’ voter. I don’t think it would be possible to come out of this alive. Too many people want what immediately benefits them, not what would make a better world.

        For example, the majority of the world is worried about climate change, but it seems like a small minority that would actually vote for useful reforms if it meant they would have to adjust their lives.
