Legally they are considered people.

Then limit each corporation's or labor Union's campaign contributions to the same limits as individuals. They can coordinate with their members or employees to direct those individuals' contributions, but cannot force them to. Eliminate Super PACs too. We need campaign finance reform to drain the swamp.

Here's another:

Increase the amount of representatives in the house by a factor of at least 100. People need to be better represented and not gerrymandered.

Veterans should get VA health benefits regardless of income level.

Basic Income needs to be our primary economic and social safety net.

we have vote by mail, its called absentee ballot

Many states require extenuating circumstances to qualify for an absentee ballot. It should be universal that anyone who wants one can have one because we want as many people voting as possible.

Not the same thing in all states and I would have exceeded 20 words to stipulate that it should be the exclusive voting method

even the dead ones..................

If you're worried about voter fraud it's very true that absentee ballots are by far the preferred method of fraudsters.

Makes it odd that Republicans who claim to be VERY concerned about ballot integrity never seem to try and restrict those... I wonder why?

voting should be done in person, with a valid state issues ID, or better yet thumb scan.
scan can be obtained when you register at your local gov office building/post office/dmv/ect

This is pointless. Vote by mail systems like Oregon's show a negligible level of fraud

That last bit is probably the scariest sentence a Republican could read. To them it's shorthand for "Republicans won't win presidential elections for decades."

problem is, voting isn't the issue. It's the policies that people vote for. Especially policies that attempt to fix a non-broken voting system. Because it's the actual policies that such "fix the vote!" candidates support are what totally fuck over the people that vote for them.

Ban political parties as they exist today. There hasn't been a true separation of powers in two centuries or more.
