All laws must be beneficial to all the children of the next 9 generations.

All laws that aren’t part of the constitution, or charter have a 20 year sunset date.

What will benefit the children born in 200 years?

Long term space colonization

Stopping climate collapse

Complete restructuring of our social and legal systems

A few little things here and there, really
