Should We Decriminalize Sex Work?

Should We Decriminalize Sex Work?

BOX SCORE: Victimless Sex

Puzzle Summary:

POLI the AI asks, "Where can we agree?" Most people go into sex work out of desperation but except for a few counties in Nevada sex work is illegal in the US. If the WELCOME: Employer Living Wage Tax Credit and/or the P50L Earned Income Tax Credits were passed into law then taking a full-time job that nets a living wage eliminates most of that desperation. Until then, law enforcement activity to curtail prostitution is ineffective, takes police away from pursuing violent criminals, and is a constant temptation trap.

ONE PARROT preaches that sex for money is wrong, and the provider and/or the customer should be imprisoned. THE OTHER PARROT solicits that sex between consenting adults is no one else's business, and that sex workers deserve decent working conditions and benefits.  What did our nonpartisan scoring system say?

National Idea Leaderboard 2023 Week 7

National Idea Leaderboard 2023 Week 7

Highlight: Death Penalty Reform

The most significant development on the scoreboard and leaderboard this week were two new puzzles being completed on the Death Penalty. Abolishing the Death Penalty only scored a weighted average of all the roles on the game board of :60%: with an above average error margin of ± 8%, with only 3/4 sides of the table, 5/8 walls of information, 9/16 cultural windows, and 5/8 columns of bias. Therefore, it did not make it onto the PolicyKeys™ National Idea Leaderboard which requires a majority of each of the four sides of the ideologically balanced political table.

However, the puzzle to Reform the Death Penalty did significantly better. While the burden of proof to find a defendant guilty is—beyond a reasonable doubt, the burden for this death penalty reform would be—only with incontrovertible evidence. It scores :71%: with a below average error margin of ± 3%, with 4/4 side of the table, 7/8 walls of information, 12/16 cultural windows, and 7/8 columns of bias. This reform would all but eliminate the possibility of putting an innocent to death. In other words, the sentencing guidelines are a fail-safe against killing innocents, and perhaps the demonstrably repentant and certain mentally ill individuals, however at some point we’ll analyze each of the latter two in separate puzzles.

Should the US End Sugar Subsidies?

Should the US End Sugar Subsidies?

BOX SCORE: Sugar Subsidies

Puzzle Summary:

Originally from the great depression, did you know that the US still subsidizes sugar production? The US exports $1.3B of sugar each year and imports $185M. Subsidies inhibit the free market, but neither party wants to lose the votes of the sugar industry.

ONE PARROT sweetly adds that the US sugar industry needs subsidies to compete in the world market, it protects sugar producers' & processors' profits and wages. THE OTHER PARROT sours that view with the US promoting sugar gluttony which increases healthcare costs, and ironically raises the price of sugar to consumers and food manufacturers.

Both Parrots make their good points over and over and over again. What did our nonpartisan scoring system say?

Should the Progestin Birth Control Pill be Available OTC?

Should the Progestin Birth Control Pill be Available OTC?

BOX SCORE: OTC Birth Control

Puzzle Summary:

There are essentially two-types of birth control pills most commonly called "the pill." The progestin-only is the safest of the two, and whether it should be made available over the counter (OTC) is the subject of this puzzle. Complicating matters is that powerful forces in politics are protecting their jobs, wages, status, profits, and wealth while women are just trying to manage their reproductive rights.

ONE PARROT pops that birth control is a human right, it should be affordable, accessible, effective, safe, since having a baby is really expensive. THE OTHER PARROT abstains that the pill isn't for everyone, that women should seek the advice of their doctors, and that abstinence is the best form of birth control. Both Parrots make their good points over and over and over again. What did our nonpartisan scoring system say?

Politics 4.0 DNA (ACGT) Conclusion

We predict an 84% vast super-majority of roles in this country to support OTC Birth Control with a very low error margin of  ± 2%.  Thrift (T) types point out that it will lower health care costs. Abundance (A) types see more affluent families through planning. Commerce (C) types see less disruptions in the workplace from unwanted pregnancies. Governance (G) types see less crime and need for family services.

Should We Sunset (End) Daylight Saving Time?

Should We Sunset (End) Daylight Saving Time?

BOX SCORE Revenge of the Early Birds

Puzzle Summary:

Most people are dissatisfied with changing the clocks twice a year, but we've been doing it for so long it has just become habit. Early birds like it lighter earlier in the day and prefer Standard Time (ST) but Night Owls like it lighter late into the evening and prefer making Daylight Saving Time (DST) permanent. The effects on energy usage are unclear because savings on lighting and increased air conditioning seem to counteract each other depending on the State's location.

ONE PARROT springs forward that commerce will go down, and crime will go up with ST forever. THE OTHER PARROT falls back on, you had me at more sleep, better mood, and less misery if ST is made permanent. Both Parrots make their good points over and over and over again. What did our nonpartisan scoring system say?

BOX SCORE for Ending Daylight Saving Time (DST)

Weighted Average Forecast

:66%: ± 7% Nonpartisan Score

Sides of the Table 4/4
Walls of Information 8/8
Cultural Windows 10/16
Columns of Bias 6/8

Conclusion: LEADERBOARD WORTHY

 

Top Four Key Reasons in Favor of Ending Daylight Saving Time

Most people prefer rising with the sun,
Employers can adjust their own workdays,
Sleep is paramount for health and productivity, and
100% DST failed in 1974.

 

Top Key Reasons Against Ending Daylight Saving Time

DST reduces crime in the PM,
DST increases consumer buying and creates jobs,
Busier after work traffic is safer when light out,
Workers need cooler mornings because of climate change.

Digital Republicans & Democratic Doves
Free Press & Managerial
Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) & Activists
USA First Independents & Importers

 

Where Can We Agree?®: Four Odd Couples Against

Judiciary & Landlords
Democratic Leadership & Republican Leadership
Gun Owners & Insurance Companies
Restaurants & Utilities

 

Four A-hah Moments

(Yes) Year-round DST failed in 1974
(Yes) DST makes media consumption go down

(No) DST decreases crime
(No) Outdoor workers need cooler mornings

 

Conclusion

We forecast that families and workers prefer their health and happiness more than owners and executives want the increased revenue. In a previous puzzle to Make DST Permanent, the Box Score was :60%: ± 8 with only 2/4 Sides of the Table in support. For a solution to make it onto our National Idea Leaderboard it must have a forecasted majority support from each of the four sides of the ideologically balanced table.

But how can both making DST Permanent (:60%:), and DST Banished (:67%) both score over 50%? Most people just want to stop changing the clocks no matter whether DST is made permanent or is banished forever.

We forecast that when looked at through the PolicyKeys™ Game-board of 128 roles balanced equally between bias for status quo and change that there is a clear winner—Sunset (end) Daylight Saving Time.

Should Governments Support Low Till Farming?

Should Governments Support Low Till Farming?

BOX SCORE: UN-Till Then Farming

Puzzle Summary:

Until the climate emergency is over, a United Nations (UN) pact to speed the adoption of low-tillage farming with industrialized member nations agreeing to assist farmers with any out-of-pocket conversion cost for equipment, crop rotation, crop diversity, and cover crops.

ONE PARROT plows that to feed the world we can't risk changing current practices for yield or monetary reasons. THE OTHER PARROT sows that caring for the soil increases carbon sequestration, yields richer soil, healthier foods, requires less water, less chemicals, less weeds, less pesticides, less labor, and produces higher yields.

The overall benefits of low-till are well known but farming is a grueling profession with thin profit margins, and all change is difficult. Both Parrots make their good points over and over and over again. What did our nonpartisan scoring system say?

Top Four Key Reasons in Favor of Supporting Low-Till Farming

An easy quick win for the planet
May mitigate climate related losses
Regenerative food means lower healthcare costs
Less nitrogen runoff into rivers and streams

 

Top Four Key Reasons Against Supporting Low-Till Farming

Vertical Hydroponics is a better solution
Food’s already abundant
Food prices could go up even more
Loss of equipment manufacturing jobs & profits

Four A-hah Moments

(Yes) Agriculture is a quarter of greenhouse gases
(Yes) Climate change will damage infrastructure

(No) CAFO livestock may be easier to protect from heat
(No) Big money to be made from rebuilding infrastructure

 

Politics 4.0 DNA (ACGT) Conclusion

We predict a 60% super-majority of roles in this country to support governments supporting the conversion to Low Till Farming, however this has a fairly large margin for error of  ± 9%.  Thrift (T) types point out that food prices might initially go up. Abundance (A) types see a relatively fast payback from any government investments or loans. Commerce (C) types see less interruptions from climate catastrophes. Governance (G) types want to cooperate with other governments world-wide to prevent catastrophic climate change.
