The details of a proposed “Zombie Voting System” are as follows. As the recovery from an economic crisis begins, workers at firms that received significant financial assistance from the government during the crisis would vote for one of two options: 1. Vote to immediately liquidate the firm they work at, and receive unemployment benefits for longer OR 2. Vote not to liquidate, and the government would inject some more cash to make the company viable and help pay off its remaining debts. But if it subsequently were to fail (go bankrupt), the workers’ unemployment coverage would be severely curtailed. The choice of option would be determined by a simple majority vote, with all current workers entitled to one vote.

“Eye in the Sky” surveillance involves constantly flying inaudible drones over large areas (say, 30 square miles). The drones take pictures of the entire area constantly. Images are stored electronically such that police can essentially turn back the clock at the location of a crime and look at where people came from or went to, potentially providing valuable clues toward solving these crimes. The image resolution does not allow for identifying individuals or reading license plates
