Barbara woke up to a blaring alarm.

She then brewed her morning coffee, poured it, and sat at the kitchen table with a bagel.

Before her, an interactive projection popped up:

You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.

Barbara had over 150 propositions to vote on based on her skill sets, knowledge, and preferences, mostly involving conservation, infrastructure, and green energy.

She cast her votes.

“Thank you, citizen! Always remember. One person. One vote. No more politicians. No more bureaucracy. No more corruption. Your continued engagement maintains our direct e-democracy!”

Barbara switched the projection to a community chat discussing the results.
