What we need are laws to prevent this kind of court trolling because courts all over europe are wasting time and money on these repeated proposals. Politicians should be held accountable for wasting everyone's time.
In the US somebody recently found a way to account powerful people.
Yay murder.
Yes, murder. That's what his company did to many families.
But it didn't work, ended up just with bruises.
I thought a lot about fair government and such when I was 16-17.
And it came down to any such action being individual, thus having an initiator, who is the responsible person, or a group of such.
And such laws, when not passing through courts, should require a huge payment (should be tied to total GDP, I think), equally split among members of that group (so a group does not become an entity).
No person from among them can initiate anything such until having paid the previous.
It seems logical, I mean. If something IRL is being overloaded, it should just be a paid service. Same here.
Should be expensive enough so to not be an acceptable cost of doing business for a corrupt politician.
Also the cost should depend on which tier of laws this is - suppose regulation of milk products is lower tier than total fscking surveillance.
Also the court should be able to determine whether a rejected initiative is a repetition, in which case the cost will be, say, order x 12 x "last year's GDP" x coefficient x tier.
It's ridiculous that lawmaking is free, with the amount of value it redistributes.
