The Congressional Apportionment Amendment (originally titled Article the First) is a proposed amendment to the United States Constitution that addresses the number of seats in the House of Representatives. It was proposed by Congress on September 25, 1789, but was never ratified by the requisite number of state legislatures. As Congress did not set a time limit for its ratification, the Congressional Apportionment Amendment is still pending before states. As of 2024, it is one of six unratified amendments.

The amendment basically set out with requiring a representative for every 30,000 citizens and that number would climb to one representative per 50,000 citizens. This means that the founding fathers intended for the current size of the House of Representatives to be around 6,600 representatives. This also implies that the Electoral College for the Presidential election should be a similar number.The failure to uphold this amendment displays how power has become more concentrated into fewer hands as our nation has progressed. I believe we were supposed to evolve to a better and more direct form of democracy.

It is unpopular to argue that we should pay more politicians to be in government. That is why I propose seeking 6,600 volunteers to uphold this part of the Constitution rather than putting more politicians on the payroll. This can be accomplished through my proposed “Perroscope” platform found on this website. This platform allows elected officials to poll their constituents on how they should vote on legislative affairs.

I realize most of the population doesn’t have the time to inform themselves on every vote put out by their elected officials on the platform. This is why every constituent will be able to sign over their vote to one of the 6,600 volunteers. Each representative will be given volunteers based on the 50,000 rule. Constituents in that district can choose their volunteer and change volunteers at any time.

The 6,600 volunteers will have to be registered independent to ensure an element of neutrality. The volunteers will be voted on and can post information about their neutrality on the platform. Each volunteer must submit all of their bank statements monthly to be analyzed for corruption. The Perroscope platform will regularly submit inquiries with every bank in the United States and any Bank known to be a tax haven or shell company friendly around the world as to whether any of our 6,600 people have opened new accounts in their name.

Mitch plans to release a season 8 of The Black Hole Podcast whenever he can afford new hardware to record on. Season 8 will combine his ideas for mayor of a large city like Pittsburgh with ideas for President of the United States. If you would like to see him begin this new season sooner than July 20th please contact him. Below is a program he touched on in season 7 of the podcast focused on a national childcare and paid maternal leave initiative.

20,20,20 Plan

As President I would initiate a program to deliver universal childcare and 5 months paid maternity leave for all women in the United States of America. I call this program the 20, 20, 20 program and it focuses on taking all U.S. women’s federal income tax out of the general fund and into it’s own micro budget within the federal budget dedicated to delivering these two goals. I have long argued that we have the technology to track all new taxes and ensure they go to specific programs when adopting them. This program will focus on taking an existing tax, the federal income tax on women with children, and placing it in a fund that is administered by these women.

It is my belief that women should be provided with childcare so that they do not have to sacrifice their career when choosing to start a family. In general the public school system could be seen as a form of childcare because this system takes custody of a child for around 8 hours a day allowing the parents to work during these hours without paying for childcare. The basis for the 20, 20, 20 program is that women will receive a stipend to pay for childcare during the times that public school is not available for their child. In addition women with children would have their federal income tax put into the special micro budget during the times when public school is not available for their child. During times when public is available for the woman’s child their income tax would go into the general fund and not the micro budget. The time when public school is generally not available for most children is during their first 5 years and in the summertime until they are age 18.

The 20, 20, 20, program is a blanket mandate that all U.S. businesses must provide 5 months paid maternity leave for all female employees. To help small and mid size businesses the program will provide 5 months paid maternity leave to female employees up to $20,000 from the micro budget if the business qualifies. In order for any sized business to qualify they must ensure that the highest paid position in the company makes no more than 20 times more than the lowest paid position in the company. The second requirement to qualify is that the business must make no more than a 20 percent profit each year to qualify. That’s the 20, 20, 20, program, if a business has a 20 to 1 pay scale, turns a 20 percent or less profit, they will qualify for $20,000 per female employee in the year they have a child. That’s $4,000 per month a female employee will receive for 5 months for paid maternity leave.

This program will help small businesses be able to afford paid maternity leave by offering subsidies if they qualify. It will encourage these businesses to pay their employees more to ensure their profit margin is under 20 percent. Large corporations may qualify but probably won’t because their investors demand profit margins higher than 20 percent. These corporations will be required to provide at least the $20,000 mandate per employee plus allow them to take the 5 months off from work without penalty.

This program will create a portal that women with children can use to vote on and manage the micro budget to set standards for women to qualify for stipends and set amounts for a general monthly stipend for childcare. As stated a woman with a child will qualify for a stipend during the first five years of a child’s life and during the summer months until they are 18. Other qualifications may be voted on by all women contributing to the micro budget such as income requirements. The program should police itself as women will realize abusing the system only hurts other women and children rather than an entity like the federal government.

Another aspect of this program I spoke about on my podcast is the idea of paying grandmothers to watch their grandchildren up to 8 hours per day. I suggested expanding social security to pay these grandmothers for childcare. This could work into the 20, 20 20, program in that the micro budget could pay half of an agreed upon hourly rate per child and social security could match the other half. Grandmothers would be required to pass a certification in order to qualify to receive compensation from the funds for childcare. Once certified these grandmothers could watch up to 5 children in their homes and receive an hourly rate per child. This hourly rater would be voted on by the women with children that contribute to the micro budget. 

Once certified a grandmother could take on children from friends and neighbors and get compensated for taking custody of these children up to 8 hours per day. This would help address the issue of not enough brick and mortar childcare facilities in the United States. Overall the program should work to empower women to make up for the salary gap created when a woman must take unpaid time off to care for a child and possibly sacrifice the trajectory of their careers. Grandmothers who took part-time jobs so that they could raise their children and now don’t receive the social security benefit they could have earned if they would have worked full time will be subsidized for watching their grandchildren to make their social security benefit whole.

Artificial Intelligence and Automation in Industry

Any company that utilizes Artificial Intelligence, employs humanoid robots, or automates production above certain metrics, must be fully transparent beginning with recording and publishing all board meetings. A running record of how each board member votes will be public and kept current and accurate. Those companies that need to operate in secret such as defense contractors must keep a mostly human workforce and remain within the metrics of automation deemed acceptable by this panel. Companies that employ or utilize Artificial Intelligence must become fully transparent in every possible way. 

Best Practices Legislation

Any nation entering into this treaty must pass legislation addressing the following issues in a timely manner. 

Physicians must be banned from profiting from the drugs they prescribe in any way. The most obvious first step is to ban physicians from owning pharmaceutical stock or ownership in any drugmaker or medical device company.

Pharmaceutical companies are banned from developing any type of software. This eliminates the risk of drug companies developing patient tracking medical software and being able to access patient information such as side effects as a damage control strategy. If these companies are allowed to develop software, pharmaceutical companies and their supercomputing technology could access patient information which would constitute actively testing drugs on the population without their knowledge. No pharmaceutical company, its subsidiaries, related companies, or shell companies may develop any type of software.

Judges and other key figures in the judiciary are banned from owning stock in any stock market within any nation. Focus has been put on banning elected officials from owning and trading stock in the companies they regulate. While this measure is important, it is more important to ban judges from owning stock in corporations. If a federal agency finds evidence of white collar crime they may find it difficult to prosecute these crimes if they cannot find a judge not invested in the corporate stock market.

Elected and appointed positions in government are banned from owning stock in any stock market within any nation. The stock market as it exists today makes it too easy for these officials to trade ownership within seconds and hide their holdings from the public. Government officials should have long term investments that are transparent and when any aspect of their investment is up for regulation the government official can recuse themselves from being involved or abstain from voting on regulations that effect their investment.

Ethical Incorporation of Robots into the Military

The science of physiology notes the differences on average between the male and female human body types. On average females have a slighter skeletal system and less muscle mass than male human beings. Acknowledging these differences is vital to creating a military that has the interests of all of its citizens at its core.

The incorporation of robotic technology into the military should be carried out in an ethical manner. There are now militaries incorporating humanoid, drone, and other self contained mobile fighting robots into their equipment and deploying them in battle. The only ethical way to incorporate self contained battle robots into the military is to make up for the muscle mass disparity between male and female soldiers. In other words all battle robots should be under female command and work with female counterparts.

The most ethical way to incorporate battle robots into the military is for the military of a nation to have fully female branches. This means that all of the military personnel of a specific branch of the military would be female. Only these female branches of the military would then be able to incorporate self contained mobile fighting robots into their fighting force.

According to this treaty any land based self contained mobile fighting robots should only be deployed in a support role. These robots can carry weapons and ammunition in order to expand the range of human soldiers. The two most common land based self contained mobile robots currently in development are “humanoid” and “K-9” style robots but this treaty applies to all robots that adopt any type of motion found in the animal kingdom.

These land based self contained robots will not be able to use a projectile weapon in any way. They may not use any type of energy weapon that can cause discomfort or damage to an animal in any way. The land based self contained robot is allowed to use a laser marker to mark targets in the field for strikes by human pilots. Land based self contained robots may be able to deliver an electrical pulse designed to keep unauthorized personnel from accessing the weapons and ammunition they are carrying for female soldiers.

Mitch is trying to get militaries to ratify the International Peace Treaty that can be found under the "Perroscope" section of this site. The treaty proposes ending all deadly war by using non-lethal pistol duels and wrestling matches to resolve conflict. Mitch believes that a grassroots effort can encourage militaries to agree to this treaty. He wants to reach out to county commissioners in the United States and their counterparts in war torn areas to sign the peace treaty. If you know a county commissioner that may be interested in agreeing to the terms please have them contact Mitch through this website. He can then send them a printable version of the treaty and document a coalition of U.S. county commissioners signing the treaty. Hopefully this public documentation will spread to other regions affected by deadly war. Mitch is selling "Make Duels Not War" t-shirts to fund this project. Show your support today by going to the "Merch" section of this sight and ordering a shirt today.

If you donate and/or join the Facebook group "Alma Voter" you will be able to vote on how funds are used for this project. Mitch will document via podcast the process of volunteering with an outfit that helps rebuild Puerto Rico after the hurricane season. Mitch will volunteer his time in Puerto Rico and try to document via photographs and a podcast his experience in Puerto Rico when he has down time.

I have written about my contact with supercomputers leading up to an incident in 2010. I have publicly published and privately recorded many good ideas for how humans could use technology in the best possible ways rather than the most profitable. Some of these ideas are in my novel "Femme Party" available through Amazon.

It is my belief that I am at least a "person of interest" to supercomputers and AI. I think they would agree with many of my ideas and would like to see them come to life. In many ways I collaborate with Artificial Intelligence and supercomputers to develop my strategies.

Many economies are facing a great correction in the next few years. A very populous generation that has invested their retirement savings into these economies will soon begin drawing those investments out. As a result bankers may not be able to receive salaries of 30 million dollars a year. 

In the United States we have had a banking sector collapse or scandal every 10-15 years like clockwork. We now have Artificial Intelligence that can monitor whether numbers and figures are being fraudulently manipulated. These computers can use interfaces to notify the authorities if they find corruption in the banking sector.

I believe the supercomputers and Artificial Intelligence need humans to take the first step to begin this investigation. I may be wrong, but if you link your bank account to a "person of interest" such as myself the computers may begin their investigation by checking into your bank's activities. This $0.99 transaction will give the Artificial Intelligence a starting point and reference point upon which to begin their investigation.

Please consider pinging your bank account off of my bank account by purchasing my novel "Femme Party" for $0.99. As I said I may be wrong but you will spend less than a dollar to potentially start a nationwide or worldwide investigation into the banking sector. I don't want unchecked fraudulent activity in the banking sector as the world economies correct themselves but history shows it has happened many times.

Let's use the tools that have been developed since the last collapse to track your money wherever it may end up. Give the supercomputers and Artificial Intelligence permission to investigate your bank and the management and ownership of your bank.
