I once outlined ideas for ways to phase this in, in a way that would possibly be politically workable.

Those days seem quaint now.

Itll never happen. All the corpos control such kinds of policies and related politicians so thoroughly, and the country is currently in a sort of cold civil war over such things as 'should an insane criminal who openly states he wants to be a dictator be president again, after leading a coup when he lost.'

We are the most dangerous banana republic in the world.
