    On another account on reddit I asked some political science subreddit “what if we used a type of git tool for bill contributions and history tracking?” It would have to be extremely simplified for such tech illiterate people to navigate it of course, but the consensus seemed to be that lobbyists could still sneak in their own language in massive pushes with opaque commit comments.

      No one reads the bill anyways… Especially not the people voting on it

      Most bills are insane enough even without history tracking
