Risk Evaluation vs. Artificial Intelligence
I processed this risk analysis through Chat GPT to provide its counter points to this new system and this were its questions and my responses.
Fundamental Democratic Issues - Concentration of Power: The system creates powerful "boards" with both legislative and executive authority, potentially undermining checks and balances. These boards could become unaccountable technocracies.
INFO
General Administration boards and other Civil agency boards will have cross-board powers to ensure all civil agency boards are accountable. Also, lower district boards will have to be accountable to top-level agencies to ensure accountability.
Board members can be voted off the board by either citizens, or a vote by the board.
Direct Democracy Scalability -While direct citizen voting sounds appealing, it's impractical for complex policy decisions and could lead to mob rule or manipulation by special interests with resources to influence voting.
INFO
- This is true today, public campaigns can sway voting. However, any media making false claims would lose their media credentials via the court system. Furthermore, boards make the final decision on laws and spend their time handling and providing solutions to the citizens.
Elimination of Traditional Taxation - Replacing taxation with "direct government voting" is unclear and potentially unworkable - how would essential services be funded consistently?
INFO
- They would be funded by the President's budget much like they are today, lower jurisdictions would receive funding from their top-level civic agencies via an integrated funding and budgeting system. What will be better than our system from the Federal, State, County, City budget system is our payment and budgeting process will be fully integrated so people can not sypher money out.
Privacy and Civil Liberties Concerns - Comprehensive Surveillance: The proposal creates an extensive tracking system where the government can monitor:
- All financial transactions and receipts
- Real-time location data for all citizens
- All digital communications and media consumption
- Personal health records and activities
INFO
It's important that the public is part of the dialogue and laws that are created around what can be done with this data. The value proposition of this data for the government and its citizens is extremely strong to protect citizens and the communities they live in.
Media is only filtered for safety interest and legislation. It's categorized so people can see what they want to watch and where. The legislation on what is not allowed will be legislated at the FTC. Things like making fertilizer bombs, I would consider a national security issue.
Personal Profile Overreach - A centralized government database containing all personal information creates enormous potential for abuse and represents a fundamental shift away from privacy rights.
INFO
No it creates privacy rights for our data, currently we are incumbered by what corporations want to do with our personal data. This will give us the ability to create laws and implement the technology to enforce and regulate those laws. Furthermore, having our personal data locked in walled gardens creates complications in the marketplace. For example, I need to use my government-issued ID on the internet and in person. I shouldn't need an Apple or Google phone for this.
Content Control - The FTC content filtering system could enable broad censorship, and requiring government approval for all physical media (t-shirts, books) is deeply problematic for free speech.
INFO
The FTC's main goal is to ensure products and media are categorized correctly. With this, federal and districts legislation around content are enforced within media and printing facilities.
Many cities don't want t-shirts that have illicit pictures on them, and we have no controls or legislation for that today. If a district doesn't want laws around this, they don't have to. However, the ones that do will have this capability.
Technical and Practical Problems - Single Points of Failure: Centralizing everything through government-controlled systems creates massive vulnerability to system failures, cyber attacks, or technical problems.
INFO
- I don't see how this is any different then our current government-provided systems that we have today. We will help improve security by having a social security sign-on, and domains registered to physical locations, and revokable domains within a US-operated domain system. Those are much better security controls then we have today.
Implementation Complexity - The proposal requires replacing virtually all existing systems simultaneously - an enormously risky undertaking that would likely create chaos during transition.
INFO
Yes, Our district licensed bank officers will have plenty of capital for these opportunities until its done.
There will be a transition period where organizations would use two systems until the transition was complete
Interoperability Assumptions - The plan assumes seamless integration across countless systems and agencies, which is historically very difficult to achieve.
INFO
Yes, this is because it's been attempted across the country. We would work in small spheres of influence for the integration efforts, while the personal profile would integrate nicely into the broader market. This is why I am setting up the Federal and District governments close to the constituents to start.
Economic Concerns - Market Disruption: Government control over operating systems, payment processing, and business permits could stifle innovation and create inefficiencies.
INFO
The government is not controlling anything, we are providing standards based on legislation to create economic opportunity and safety for the marketplace. That is the government's #1 job.
Monopolization Many functions would become government monopolies, potentially reducing service quality and innovation.
INFO
A government is a monopoly by definition. Board members can be removed by board members or citizens. If a board or the organization is not meeting the public's needs it can be shut down or new management can take over to improve quality and innovation.
Furthermore, its actually the county/city model that doesn't provide innovation because they are not taking advantage of their domain expertise in other jurisdictions.
Constitutional Violations: Many provisions would likely violate the First, Fourth, Fifth, and Fourteenth Amendments regarding free speech, unreasonable search, due process, and equal protection.
INFO
We will ensure to replicate all constitutional rights online just as we have offline. We will also ensure the Sherman Act is implemented. We wil also ensure the FTC has legislation around what content is being filtered. I almost blew my hand off building a bomb from a BBS message board that was not content filtered.
Tax Issues - There will be a mix of government agencies where tax is due, and government agencies with direct voting, how do you plan on handling that transition?
INFO
Once a city turns into a civil agency district, the local, federal tax code, and property taxes will be removed. Federal taxes will be reduced for the population by the % of the tax basis the jurisdiction paid across all agencies relativity.
Federal vs. State Authority - The plan appears to federalize many functions traditionally handled by states, which could face legal challenges.
INFO
I agree, I also believe legal challenges can be brought forward around why our federal agencies aren't providing services to cities adequately in all these categories described via the state actors.
There are several issues the state has not been able to handle due to the inefficient processes between the federal, state, and county/city officials. This includes homelessness, transportation, health, education, security, jobs, and many other issues.
Having vertical integration from the federal to various district levels creates integrated opportunities and accountability, and that is what the public needs right now with the government.
Over Saturation of Jobs - Since citizens will be providing laws that will require the market to adapt and provide products and services, there will be an overwhelming amount of jobs and opportunities.
INFO
Yes that is correct. This surplus of jobs will make a middle class for America again and keep a true job market. If you don't do this, the rich and poor are going to continue to separate and we will become 100% subsidized consumers for corporate profits at the end of our current governmental cycle if we don't intercept it.
