The ''Special Projects'' that each candidate initially selected for the ''Executive Group'' should reflect these needs.

This group must be determined early so they can hire the appropriate staff and begin building the rest of the government.

How this happens in practice will most likely vary widely based on the existing/previous government in place and the relationship the citizens have with that government. Another factor to consider is if this would be the very first iteration of the Liminal State or if there are other Liminal States in e...") Tag: Visual edit

The ''Empathy Test'' necessary to fulfill this requirement should be standardized and used across every iteration of the Liminal State so as to not be population or culture specific. There is no Liminal State without this test, so its development should be the second priority of the ''Δ Coalition''. It al...") Tag: Visual edit

This system should be a completely new take on web applications, that integrates biometrics, individual specific hardware, and other layers that ensure non-voters and/or hackers can never access the system, modify results, tamper with code, or extract information from any entry point into the system.

Rather than this being a formality rooted in religion or tradition, elected leaders of the Liminal State will be held legally accountable to the ''Citizens'' by virtue of the oath they take prior to assuming the office they were elected to.

No government arising out of violence is ever loved or lasts. With violence being antithetical to the Liminal State, it is important that the Liminal State evolve within the boundaries of existing laws.
