You say it like it's given that natural resources wealth is distributed for population like it's in Norway. Its not. It takes a lot of work. Otherwise you get shithole countries where warlords/corporations/mafia take over control of resources and enrich them selves instead of raising global wellbeing.

its middle ground in a sense that it has all centralisation (1) and none of legal accountability (0) so averages at 0.5 (middle ground)

Re:Wealth Inequality in America drawn to scale

Id say you CAN tax the poor (by wealth), and apparently they are contributing almost same absolute amount like the top rich :
Rough estimates for federal taxes
Top 0.1% Share of federal taxes ~10–12% Approx ~$550–650B
Bottom 50% Share of federal taxes ~10–13% Approx ~$520–680B

But somehow these rich people take loans of real money that they buy real things for. So it looks like you could eat or live from stocks.

ok, so put a disclosure time on ruling. how how much time should pass so that information is non risk anymore? So you know that nukes locations got leaked, so what do you do? do you relocate the base? if not how sure can you be that this information is not accuired by enemies? So if you do not realocate the base you accept that this is acceptable risk. So might be that publishing the ruling is also acceptable?

Yeah but you know there trade offs like free society, freedom of movement, privacy and stuff that you need to sacrifice to take advantage of home turf. And you need to do this everywhere. Attacker can pick his targets on his own schedule, you need to defend always.

Yeah, but how these residential proxies get in the residential areas? I would guess popular VPN providers are mostly behind this. They sell you VPN and sell bots residential proxy access on the other end.

if someone is forcing you to vote against your will, i thing you and country have more serious problems to solve. especially if its happening at scale.

but its also easy to scale vote validation for voters with evoting. how to you validate that your vote is counted correctly with paper voting?

So if someone else knows my private key and voted for me not the same way i intended to vote, this will be visible in final results. And then you can start asking questions. If they have my private key and voted the way i intended, then its no problem :)

We have civil code for everyday life, do you think people read that? I bet no, but anyway it describes rules by which people live. And when there is disagreement we open a book and see whos right. Do you think we should not have such rule book?

Sometimes its a good thing that people do not elect directly. They participate indirectly though. And there are general rules to follow. So its more stable framework than full public control each election cycle, because the populism happens and if you want to be elected you cant take unpopular decisions which sometimes are needed.
