Is this a dystopia or a utopia?
It's time the USA got modern and transitioned the three branches of Government to the Digital Gig Economy.
Legislators would be selected as needed for specific bills, enacted by departments calling in workers on demand, and adjudicated by a dynamic pool of potential clerks and judges.
The lean 'n' clean just-in-time government would strictly adhere to agile standards, working in two week sprints, with all progress posted publicly online Agile Board. All proposed actions: legislation, enforcement, procurement, etc, would be specified as unit tests and would have to pass these tests in order to be put into action. Furthermore, all laws would be subject to strict code coverage - no legal stipulation will be untested.
Tasks will be broken down into simple goals, which include testing and training, so that people can be drafted like jury service to serve as judges, legislators, and ambassadors.
Voting will be unnecessary, since the constant turnover of randomly drafted citizens will ensure that actions get the representation they need, and the aforementioned turnover will eliminate career politics and corruption.
Roles in the Agile Government will determined and vetted by machine learning, which having observed the processes involved, will continuously propose new legislation to optimize those processes. Newly conceived offices and positions will replace the traditional hierarchies so prone to inaction and corruption.
The crude concept of "working for a living" is then replaced with guaranteed environmental predictability, food, housing, education, health care, travel, digital infrastructure, distribution of goods, and dissolution of political borders. This will bring back the pre-cash economy, while the remnants of the old economics may still play out as a kind of sport.
