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.

    Year 1: Eliminate Food and Water poverty.

    Year 2: Porn is legalized everywhere, and there’s a world government official porn site that’s always free. Free smartphones for everyone as well.

    Year 3: Universal Housing and sewage.

    Year 4: Sex work is legalized everywhere (this might be popular enough to coast you an extra year) and ensured to be safe for the sex workers.

    Year 5: Universal Child care

    Year 6: Drugs are legalized everywhere

    Year 7: Universal Elderly care (+ free healthcare for the USA weirdo country)

    Year 8: Universal Education and media translation to top 10 most spoken languages. Also the top media franchises of each existing country will be freely available online now as well in a “cultural digital vault”.

    Year 9: Eliminate country borders, issue new universal passport, set up new cultural ethnic / geographical regions instead that exist only to help with political and business management. Begin 5 year disposable plastics phase out (medical exception though), eliminate plastics and pseudoplastics from foods and cosmetics, Worldwide public transportation system + Continental Hypertrain System project. Set up a world government that can only be compromised of elected STEM degree holders that have a job in their role, and bars anyone that has ever owned / owned a company or worked in any petroleum based industry. Esperanto is also more the official world government language, Linux and FOSS official world government software usage, and lawyers can now only work under the government for fixed rate. Everyone has access to a lawyer by right. These foundational laws cannot be changed.

    Also announce I have been contacted by extraterrestrial life, and was told they will greet us if we survive the great filter and set up solar system wide travel and infrastructure as a species. Oh, and limit wealth/assets to be no higher than 200 million euros equivalent (inflation adjusted) worth. There will be a new currency set up as well.

    Year 10: Announce I’m “retiring” from direct rule but will intervene if 57% of the world votes for me to enact something. Die probably. If the alien and world government gambit does pay off, maybe coast off previous popularity for a couple years and just have fun until summoned or dead.
