The app for independent voices

Interesting idea. I worry that you'd need a government to government those who govern, meaning you'd run the risk of shifting the corruption to a new entity. Also, most of the aspects of government that are corrupt have happened in the open. We just didn't notice them.

I agree that there's no point to advocating for programs until government officials demonstrate accountability to the people. I think we can do it by demanding that laws like the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act be repealed. Politicians nor their spouses, parents and children, should be allowed to trade stock from the time they assume office until 10 years after they leave office. A lifetime cap should be put on speakers fees. That's an incomplete list, but that's the general direction I'm inclined to move in.
