1) Abolish the national government. You've heard it before and such.
2) Abolish the regions and go to a national lower house where everyone is automatically inducted. Keep elections for higher positions, o/c, including perhaps expanding them to including the cabinet. It would almost be as if we were simulating one big state/region.
3) Now that I mention it, why not pretend we're the 51st state that's somewhere random? It would be a way to get rid of the whole are we the US continued or a separation nation dichotomy.
Our opinions are not far apart. I agree with making the game revolve around a national lower house with universal membership. The question where we may possibly differ is whether or not to create an elected upper house - I'm not sure if this is what you meant when you referred to by elections for higher positions. There are a few smaller differences, but I think we agree on a fair amount.
Right, there'd be an elected upper house, preferably, in my proposal.
Universal membership to anyone? It would seem the numbers in the house would be switching quite often. What about giving a vote in the lower house to every person that voted in the last election?
What's wrong with the numbers switching quite often?
