I would love to see election reform, but how to implement it so that it is not (perceived as) one party locking the other out of power indefinitely? I propose a 16 year lag from it becoming law to implementation becoming mandated: if the opposing party comes to power and has different ideas, they can then modify the law, resetting the counter. This might encourage some level of compromise.
Alas, the fact that gerrymandering is still performed by both parties (in different states) inspires less than optimism.
I'm interested to know what HN might come up with.
