i'd be down for giving tests to legislators of all the bills they're voting on for the day, with questions designed by legislative analysts of all stripes. that way, potential consequences are tested for, not just the contents.
- trothamel 5y agoThe vast majority of politics is about things reasonable people disagree on. When you have an elections bills that one side considers to expand access to voting, while the other side considers it to enable voting fraud, how would you write a test?
- clairity 5y agoah, the dichotomy trap again. we've really got to get past "two sides". what's best for people? for society? if voting is expanded, to who? why? how? what kind of fraud could it enable? how much? how likely? it's not that hard.
