Great talk thanks for sharing, someone actually sharing some solid actionable things for improvement of society!

I guess the real question is how to increase voter turnout. Maybe some crazy influencer marketing campaign, where influencers do meetups right at polling stations lol.

What if we offered some monetary or tax incentive if you vote like 4% off your taxes? Or you get $100 or something. That would cost around 30B and maybe it's worth it??

Just about sums it up, lol. I wouldn’t show up to vote for a candidate I don’t like.

Put someone on the ballot who has some stake in the future.
