A new proposal suggests creating a government agency designed to tackle major societal challenges by allowing citizens to propose and fund innovative public initiatives. The concept would let the public directly shape policy priorities, bypassing traditional bureaucratic hurdles. Supporters argue it could drive progress on issues like climate change, healthcare, and education by leveraging collective creativity. Critics question whether such an approach could lead to inefficiency or political manipulation, raising concerns about accountability in public spending.
What if you could invent a government agency and get the government to fund it?
