I like the 'track override'. Presumably they can limit by kW for NZ laws as well.

Or it breaks up and the coastal states become normal medium sized countries while the flyover states descend into dystopia.

I assume that the 'fringe mayoral candidate and self-styled anti-corruption campaigner' is She Who May Not Be Named and her moniker is expunged by the editorial system before publication.

It's interesting if you look at the history of universal suffrage. It was originally instigated by the merchant classes in order to enlist the working classes as allies in their struggles with the landed gentry. It worked initially in that goal, but has created increasing problems. One of the world's largest economies doesn't bother with it at all, preferring to vest power in the 5% or so of the population they consider trustworthy.
Maybe it's getting time to reconsider - before you all start screaming, I'm not suggesting gas chambers, sterilisation or slavery. Just applying similar rules to that which most countries apply to people from outside their borders wanting to become citizens- some sort of assessment of ability and attitude.
