IN THIS LESSON
End Cronyism: Abolish all corporate subsidies, bailouts, and targeted tax breaks.
A. Open Bidding Mandate: Mandate competitive, open public bidding for all government contracts above a minimum threshold, ensuring value for taxpayer money and eliminating backroom deals.
B. Anti-Lobbying Revolving Door: Institute a mandatory five-year ban on political lobbying for former senior government ministers, permanent secretaries, and high-ranking regulatory officials.
C. Subsidy Sunset Clause: Introduce a "Sunset Clause" on all existing and future corporate tax breaks and subsidies, requiring active parliamentary renewal and a proven return on investment every three years.
Borderless Prosperity: Implement genuine free trade with all nations; abolish protectionist tariffs.
A. Mutual Tariff Reduction: Initiate binding bilateral trade agreements with global partners, focused on mutual, near-100% tariff-free trade of goods and services.

Abolish Planning: Dissolve restrictive planning laws to boost growth and lower housing costs.
A. Decentralized Planning Authority: Shift primary planning authority away from centralized bureaucracy to local communities, incentivizing development through a 'Density Dividend' where local areas retain tax benefits from new housing supply.
B. Automatic Housing Approval: Implement a system for automatic approval for all housing developments that comply with pre-defined, high-level standards for density, safety, and environmental protection on designated developable land.
