Hey America, over the next 500 years lets build 50 wonders in new national parks. A wonder is an enormous work of art. We can do this following the simple democratic process outlined below.
- In a ceremony in the capital building overseen by the senate the president randomly picks three state names from a hat.
- Following their own democratic process the three states each create a proposal for a new national park in the state with a wonder in it.
- Working together the Congressional Budget Office, U.S. Army Corp of Engineers, and National Park Service will asses the cost, viability, and durability of each proposal and publish a report.
- A national vote will be held to select one of the states proposals using a ranked choice vote. A fourth option of none will be offered as a choice when voting. If none wins, then this process starts over with three new states.
- The winning state is granted a budget by congress and given 10 years to build its new wonder and acquire land for the new national park.
- During the 10 years while the winning state is toiling away, the selection process for the next state can start.
This proposal is a work in progress. Please do not share it until its complete. Suggestions are welcome via this projects github page.
