Not only will you die, but so will your entire family and your pets.

This is so you are incentivised to stay alive.

Rules:

  • You cannot refuse this, refusal is also instant death, along with everyone mentioned above.

  • You have absolute authority over the entire world.

  • Every person has a non-removable brain implant that allows them to vote “Approve”, “Disapprove”, or “Abstain from vote”. These are completely immune to hacking.

  • Every above age 18 can vote.

  • You must maintain 50% + 1 vote of “Approve”, exactly 50% Approve / 50% Disapprove still means death for you. “Abstain” is not a vote means it isn’t counted.

  • The effects don’t apply until at least 50% of the population has voted. If you get more 51% disapproval, you’ll still live as long as theres less than 50% of the votes submitted.

  • If someone dies before voting, their vote automatically becomes “Disapprove” (So you don’t get any ideas of committing genocides)

  • Once a vote is submitted, it stays valid even if the person died. A person could also make their implant automatically change vote if they die. So someone could have their vote be set at “Approve” but becomes “Disapprove” upon death.

    Eradicate poverty and cars. Hey guess what drivers, you hate driving, that’s why you rush until it’s over. So I’ll make public transit so fast and reliable that driving will finally be treated as primitive as it actually is.

    Free apartments for all. Luxury apartments cost money. Unwanted, dangerous, and unpleasant jobs are automated with AI.

    All debt is forgiven and you have a clean slate. Everyone now has a credit score of 700. Kickstart your best life.

    Happy population means more locally owned businesses, less crime, less mental illness, less of a declining birth rate.

      I love driving. That’s why I have two cars. A nice, comfortable, efficient, daily driver that makes my commute nice. And a fun car, for when I want fun.

        Ah yes, the classic “driving is fun, it’s just The People that make it stressful”. How many people did you swear at on the road this month? And how many pedestrians did you beep at or inch towards while they were crossing the street?

      All debt? Does that include companies too?

      They’ve borrowed at least billions to grow their businesses, and that sort of money won’t just disappear without a trace. In this case, the trace would probably include economic instability of some sort. There’s a reason why central banks use interest rate to influence borrowing and inflation.
