There’s a much greater chance of seating someone with zero life experience or insane ideas or maybe just illiterate.
That’s fine. And there definitely will be some of them in this Senate. But they will only be 1 vote out of 1000.
As long as the majority of people in the country have life experience, sane ideas, and can read, it will be fine. And even the inexperienced, insane illiterates out there will get their proportional representation.
What about the extremely demotivated? It sounds like a good system but then the idea of being selected myself occurs to me and like, I’d rather die than have to do that job. People suck, and 1000 is a lot of people.
Nice thoroughly fleshed out idea though, youve obviously put a lot of thought into that. Props.
A) To do the right thing, you report for Senate duty as required, but then request that your mentor Senator put it up for a vote to excuse you from service, along with an explanation/sob story of why you really don’t want to be a Senator. If 66% of other Senators agree that you shouldn’t be forced to, then you don’t have to.
or,
B) Just ignore it and potentially face legal consequences like steep fines or judgements requiring community service hours.
But … yeah. The people who don’t want to be in government are the exact sort who should be in government, so it shouldn’t be an easy thing to get out of.
