	Because this approach is taken, laws may never target only a portion of the population, overtly or covertly, unless they apply to a specific pre-defined group as a whole.

Any laws specifically applied to one of these groups must still work within the minimum legal framework of the Liminal State.~~<blockquote>~~

	It may be surprising to some that many nations currently have jurisprudence originating in medieval precedence, from works such as the Magna Carta, Bible or Quran, or even based on the Code of Hammurabi. Over time these laws may stop being enforced, their meaning redefined, or they could be capriciously enforced anew for nefarious reasons by elites as they dictate their preferences onto society.

	The Liminal State instead deconstructs these sources, takes lessons from history, philosophy, and even evolutionary psychology, and ultimately asks “what do we really need to coexist in a modern society?” In essence, the Liminal State starts with a blank slate and builds up; using a unique and far more equitable method among existing democracies for creating new laws and and shaping our communities.

	To begin with, the laws ensuring universal equality and basic freedoms, those expected of any modern society, are set from the start and are immutable. Communities then decide for themselves what additions they wish to make within this framework, while the Liminal State focuses on those aspects of governance that fall outside the scope of social issues. While there is some gray area here, this generally means that the Liminal State will maintain infrastructure ~~and~~ the regulations affecting the economy, business practices, etc., ~~while~~ the ~~citizens~~ will shape the laws that impact their local communities based on their own values~~. The only ongoing role of the Liminal State in regards to social matters is enforcement of those laws as communities pass them~~.

	This philosophy makes the Liminal State the only government intentionally designed from inception to accommodate vast populations with unique perspectives and cultures, and perhaps therefore the only governmental structure that could ever work at an international level.

At a high level, all people start with complete freedom in the Liminal State. Foundational laws then ensure all are treated equally and the people are prioritized above all else, thereby creating a level playing field. Then subsequent laws are passed, per the Citizens' wishes, to restrict these freedoms in the most limited ways possible, until there is an ideal balance between freedoms and the limits on those freedoms, and a balanced social construct has been reached where all ''Citizens'' can live and work together in this healthy, productive, and fulfilled society.

	Because this approach is taken, laws ~~affecting citizens~~ may never target only a portion of the population, overtly or covertly.		Because this approach is taken, laws may never target only a portion of the population, overtly or covertly, unless they apply to a specific pre-defined group. The Liminal State recognizes three pre-defined groups: ''Non-Citizens'', ''Protected Citizens'' (children, some with an intellectual disability, etc.), and ''Emancipated Citizens'' (adults). Any laws specifically applied to one of these groups must still work within the minimum legal framework of the Liminal State.<blockquote>
	~~For example, "~~men ~~may not get tattoos" is~~ not be allowed ~~because it singles out men~~, ~~though "tattoos are forbidden"~~ would be ~~lawful~~.		Example 1: A law forbidding men from owning guns would not be allowed, but a law that prevents ''Protected Citizens'' from owning guns would be.
	Even if a law uses ~~other~~ language ~~that~~ doesn’t ~~overtly~~ target a specific group, ~~but would~~ by virtue of the way ~~the law was written or~~ enforcement would ~~require~~, that would ~~also not~~ be ~~allowed~~. ~~Even in situations where the law~~ is written ~~broadly but~~ would in practice disproportionately affect ~~a subset~~ of ~~the population, it would not be allowed~~.		</blockquote>Even if a law uses ambiguous or misleading language which overtly doesn’t appear to target a specific sub-group, yet by virtue of the way enforcement would need to be applied still would, that too would be illegal. It is prohibited for any laws to be written in any way that would, in practice, disproportionately affect one of these pre-defined groups.<blockquote>
	~~For example, “no one~~ with ~~less than 2xX chromosomes may get tattoos”~~ would not be ~~lawful~~.		Example 2: A law that allows only those people with low average levels of testosterone to own guns would not be allowed, even if some minority population of men could still be eligible under this law.
	While ~~tattoos~~ could theoretically be outlawed, in the Liminal State laws may only be implemented using the 80% ~~rule~~. This means ~~that~~ 80% of voters~~, which makes up 80% of the eligible population,~~ would be required to vote in favor ~~of this law~~ to limit this freedom.		</blockquote>While guns could theoretically be outlawed, in the Liminal State laws may only be implemented using the ''80% Rule''. This means 80% eligible voters would be required to vote in favor to limit this freedom.

	It may seem unlikely that 80% of a voting population would agree on anything, but this highlights the greatest ~~difference and benefit~~ of the Liminal State. Only very common sense laws ~~that~~ the widest ~~portion~~ of the population ~~support~~ should be applied to the whole population.		It may seem unlikely that 80% of a voting population would agree on anything, but this highlights the greatest advantage of the Liminal State. Only very common sense laws with the widest support of the population should be applied to the whole population. Instead of an entire nation forced to accept a rule that passes with 50% + 1 vote, where clearly half the nation opposes, the ''80% Rule'' forces populations to check themselves from forcing unpopular laws on an unwilling population.

	If, for example, ~~there is a really important rule for a small portion of the population, but not enough~~ to ~~reach~~ the ~~80% threshold at the national level, then that portion~~ of ~~the population could coalesce at a lower level within~~ the Liminal State~~, such as~~ a ~~state~~, ~~district, or city to implement this change. Wherever 80% of the population~~ within ~~a political boundary might agree with this restriction on~~ their ~~freedoms~~, ~~it could be implemented~~.		=== '''Local Self-Determination''' ===
			On the other hand, local communities have much more power over their own lives within the Liminal State. A town, for example, may pass laws to restrict their freedoms however they wish (within the minimum legal framework of the Liminal State). They would still be forbidden from passing a law banning men from owning guns, but they could ban all gun ownership within their community, while the next town over may allow gun ownership across all pre-defined groups.

	~~While the~~ ''~~Justice Branch~~'' of the ~~Liminal State first ensures~~ all ~~potential laws meet a minimum legal standard before there is ever a vote~~, ~~there’s nothing like a Supreme Court that~~ could ~~overturn existing~~ laws. The Liminal State is ~~truly a government by~~ and ~~for~~ the ~~people~~, and ~~that means that~~ the ~~people’s votes truly~~ and ~~directly determine~~ the ~~rules of the land~~, and ~~only by~~ popular ~~vote among citizens can a law be enacted or removed~~.		In this way ''Citizens'' can mold their communities the way they see fit and all communities can learn from one another. With the previous example, surrounding communities could watch and see how these laws regarding gun ownership affect the school shootings, personal defense, domestic violence, inconvenience to hunters, etc. in those communities. The same goes for abortion, vaccines, transgendered bathrooms, etc. All these hot-button social issues that are currently being debated nationally would be better addressed locally, and only within the Liminal State is it possible to do this. When these ideas get tried locally and real data behind the effects of these laws becomes available, those winning ideas from the local level will gain additional support and get proposed at a higher level. Only the best ideas and laws will rise to the top, and through demonstrable data and popular support will the best ideas become national laws.

	The key understanding here is that smaller groups of ~~citizens~~ may have specific freedoms they would like to forfeit for their community. Instead of having to fight for ~~the most~~ important laws to get passed at the national level, where half of the population will then immediately work to reverse it, ~~citizens~~ can mold their communities the way they see fit for themselves and their neighbors.		=== '''Conclusion''' ===

	=== '''Path 3: Impeachment''' ===		=== '''Path 3: Impeachment''' ===
			Unlike the current messy process in the United States where the voters have no say and instead must hope a couple hundred partisan political elites, half of which belong to the same party as the president, will actually do their job and remove a corrupt president, the following process is used by the Liminal State to change this power dynamic and give the power of impeachment back to the people.

	As it is the ''Eligible Voters'' that are responsible for picking effective leaders, it is entirely up the the ''Eligible Voters'' to judge the performance of the ''Executive Group'', and they have that opportunity every four years with the ''General Election''.		As it is the ''Eligible Voters'' that are responsible for picking effective leaders, it is entirely up the the ''Eligible Voters'' to judge the performance of the ''Executive Group'', and they have that opportunity every four years with the ''General Election''.

	The ''General Election'' is not only used to elect a new member to the ''Executive Group'', but also an opportunity to grade all the existing members on their performance ~~thus far~~, and impeach if necessary. All existing ''Executive Group'' members are graded in this way, including the outgoing senior member.		The ''General Election'' is not only used to elect a new member to the ''Executive Group'', but also an opportunity to grade all the existing members on their performance over the previous four years, and impeach if necessary. All existing ''Executive Group'' members are graded in this way, including the outgoing senior member.

			While it may seem counterintuitive to potentially impeach the outgoing senior ''Executive Group'' member, as there is a year or more prior to the newly elected candidate actual filling the seat it may be in the best interest of the ''Eligible Voters'' to still remove them early. Additionally, this means there is no place for a lame duck official in the Liminal State, and this system encourages all officials to finish the final years in their seats just as actively as their first.

			To calculate the grade that each ''Executive Group'' member receives every four years, divide the the number of votes of disapproval by the number of votes in approval. The greater the result, the better that member's grade.
			Example 1: 1000 votes are in approval and 250 are in disapproval. That means 1000 / 250 = 4

	~~While it may seem counterintuitive~~ to ~~potentially impeach the outgoing senior~~ ''Executive Group'' member, ~~there is~~ a ~~year or more prior to the newly elected candidate actual filling the~~ seat, ~~so it may be~~ in the ~~best interest~~ of ~~the ''Eligible Voters''~~ to ~~still remove someone early~~. ~~Additionally~~, ~~this means there is no place for a lame duck official in~~ the ~~Liminal State~~, ~~and~~ this ~~system encourages all officials to finish the final years in~~ their ~~seats just as actively as their first~~.		Example 2: 250 votes are in approval and 1000 are in disapproval That means 250 / 1000 = 0.25
			This grade plays a direct role in the impeachment of a member. If 40% of the voters in that election opt to give a grade to an ''Executive Group'' member, and if that member receive a grade below 1, then that member has been successfully impeached and removed from their seat.
			Example 3: If there are 5000 total votes cast, with 250 votes are in approval and 1000 are in disapproval, the percentage of voters giving a grade to this member is 25% [(250 + 1000) / 5000 = 25%]. This is below the 40% threshold, so while the grade remains 0.25, this member would keep their seat.

	To calculate the grade that each ''Executive Group'' member receives every four years, divide the the number of votes against impeachment to the number of votes for. The greater the result, the better that member is doing. If they receive a number less than one, then they lose their seat.		Example 4: If there are 3000 total votes cast, with 1000 votes are in approval and 250 are in disapproval, the percentage of voters giving a grade to this member is 41.67% [(1000 + 250) / 3000 = 41.67%]. This is above the 40% threshold, but with a grade of 4.0, this member would keep their seat.
	Example 1: ~~Out of 5000~~ votes cast, 1000 votes are ~~against impeachment~~ and 250 are ~~for~~. ~~That means~~ 1000 / ~~250~~ = ~~4 (~~the ~~seat~~ of this ~~''Executive Group''~~ member ~~is safe)~~.

	Example 2: ~~Out of 5000~~ votes cast, 250 votes are ~~against impeachment~~ and 1000 are ~~for~~. ~~That means~~ 250 / ~~1000~~ = 0.25 (this ~~''Executive Group~~ member~~'' has lost~~ their seat).		Example 5: If there are 3000 total votes cast, with 250 votes are in approval and 1000 are in disapproval, the percentage of voters giving a grade to this member is 41.67% [(250 + 1000) / 3000 = 41.67%]. This is above the 40% threshold, so with a grade of 0.25, this member would be officially impeached and lose their seat.
	This method ~~is used because~~ it'~~s not good enough to~~ be ~~be okay a a leader in the Liminal State. If~~ a ''Executive Group ~~member~~'' ~~is only getting by and isn~~'~~t actively engaging~~ with the ''Citizens'' and ~~generating good will during their tenure, then they will likely get few people to vote against impeachment~~. ~~That means that even a low number of votes in favor of impeachment can unseat a mediocre~~ ''Executive Group ~~member~~''.		This method gives the ''Eligible Voters'' the direct ability to remove ineffective or corrupt leaders. But it also shouldn't be easy for a handful of disaffected ''Citizens'' to remove ''Executive Group'' members every ''Election Cycle'' out of spite. This equation ensures our leaders know exactly where they stand with the ''Citizens'' through the periodic grades they receive, and with this knowledge adjust course if necessary. Yet if enough ''Eligible Voters'' have an opinion and give an ''Executive Group'' member a bad grade, it results in their immediate removal.
