1. Abolish the Senate. Transfer all powers of the Senate to the House of Representatives.

2. Expand the House of Representatives. Reapportion the House so that the number of Representatives accurately reflects the ratio of representatives to members of Congress as proscribed in the United States Constitution.

3. Elect the entire House of Representatives on an at-large basis using proportional representation.

4. Abolish the Executive Branch. Transfer all powers of the Executive Branch to the unicameral House of Representatives.

5. End lifetime tenure on the Supreme Court. Prohibit Supreme Court Justices from serving longer than an eight year term, effective upon the resignation or death of sitting members of the Court.

6. Elect all judges. Including, of course, members of the Supreme Court.

7. Abolish judicial review. This is an usurped power of the Court with no constitutional basis that the Court has repeatedly used to curtail democracy and empower the state or its beneficiaries (the ruling classes) to defeat the advance of democracy. The Supreme Court should act only as an appeals court of last resort.

8. Establish recall, initiative, and referendum at every level of government.

9. Limit all public officials' salaries so that they are equivalent to that of the average skilled worker and rise only with inflation.

10. Establish citizen oversight councils with the ability to monitor, investigate, and hold accountable all state bureaucracies, especially the state security apparatus.
Would #3 be elected by a nationwide PR vote or a statewide PR vote?
