@humanoftheinternet ooohhh nice ! I agree for sure, though I'm not sure about the need for representative levels? Maybe federations can have recallable delegates? Perhaps in the style of DAANES where the number and demographics of delegates have to reflect the population they delegate from (ex. one man and one woman in the case of DAANES).

Many states are now making it harder for citizens to pass their own laws through voting on ballot ideas. This is happening after voters in states like Alaska and Nebraska approved measures for paid sick leave.
