So, basically a popularity contest taken to the extreme… I wonder how long it takes before it devolves into something like Running Man or the Hunger Games.
The justice system in the US is completely fucked, but this sounds like we would be focusing on the worst aspect of the current system and tossing out everything else.
I think that the problem with any of the “anarchist” or libertarian plans is that they all rely on everyone buying into the system. They ignore the reality of people acting against their own interests, Just look at the rise of fascism right now… a small but vocal minority have convinced a much larger group to burn down everything that offers them any kind of freedom or prosperity. The vast majority of people currently backing fascist ideas are going to be the very ones who lose the most under fascism.
