Raven's 10 Policy Platform for Good Governance in 2025, Independent of the Country:

1. Every citizen and documented immigrant should be guaranteed and be able to expect the government to do it's best to represent their needs and best interests as best as it possibly can to enable to maximum health, fulfillment, and enjoyment in life.

2. Universal Single Payer Healthcare, free at the point of service for all citizens and documented immigrants, and a buy in option for undocumented immigrants and visitors. (Basically Bernie Sander's Medicare For All Proposal)

3. Housing For All, make it free for all citizens and documented immigrants, and a right for them. Undocumented immigrants and visitors would need to pay for housing or seek temporary residence shelter status. (Closest to Cuba's housing model)

4. Free Public Transportation, free for all citizens and documented immigrants, undocumented immigrants and visitors can buy in, privatized and privatization of public transportation would be illegal.

5. Disabled Inclusion and Equity, Disabled citizens and documented immigrants have a right to self determination and independence so long as a group of 10 physicians and judge via a court ruling or criminal trial waiver as a result of insanity determine otherwise. Treatment of disabilities must be inline with best efforts and good faith to both improve the quality of the disabled citizen or documented immigrant's life and their health. Disabled citizens and documented immigrants who cannot provide the means of living for themselves will be cared for.

6. LGBTQ Rights, any number of people who can and do consent to a sexual, romantic, and/or marriage based relationship should have the right to do so and all the same amenities and legal affordances that any monogamous cisgendered heterosexual couple would have.

7. Free Universal Education, all education is free for citizens and documented immigrants: free tuition, free learning materials, free textbooks, and free basic needs. When you are a full time student, your job should be to learn. Getting into college and higher education is enough. This would ban the employment of students in full time attendance to any educational institution. Undocumented immigrants by being accepted to a specialty lower education institution or a higher educational institution of any type should be granted documentation and legal residency. Programs should be made to entice these immigrants to become citizens and stay after receiving their education.

8. Birth Right Citizenship, if you are born within a nation's borders, you should be entitled to citizenship of that nation.

9. Citizenship By Heritage, one ancestor of pure heritage in either the last 5 generations for sedentary cultures, or the last 10 for nomadic cultures. Can be done with birth records, adoption paperwork, or reputable DNA testing results.

10. Citizenship By Immigration & Assimilation, documented immigrants should be encouraged to assimilate, this should be done through free language courses and certifications and free culture courses and certifications. The formation of ethnic enclaves by immigrants should be fiercely discouraged, but families and friends must never be separated to achieve this goal. Voluntary sublimation of the immigrant population into the predominant and preexisting culture is the ultimate goal. Prospective immigrants without a criminal records and/or who are dodging the draft or oppression of any enemy nation and/or who are the victims of genocide(s) abroad, must be prioritized. Prospective immigrants personal finances should not matter in the immigration process. Becoming a documented immigrant should be simple and sensible and follow these guidelines.

"Someone present in the US on a student visa who didn’t enroll in courses would have had no right to work at the time and would have had to leave the country, according to experts WIRED consulted. (He did ultimately receive work authorization in 1997.)

Overstaying a student visa was, and to a much lesser extent still is, relatively common. Working without authorization and lying about it during the immigration process would be, however, a black-letter violation of US law carrying significant penalties, albeit one enforced fairly rarely, say experts.

Stephen Yale-Loehr, a professor at Cornell Law School and faculty director of its Immigration Law and Policy Program, says that it’s not clear that if Musk worked in the US without authorization and attested he hadn’t, that would be considered important enough to denaturalize him. However, he says, “on purely legal grounds, this would justify revoking citizenship, because if he had told the truth, he would not have been eligible for an H1-B, a green card, or naturalization.”

Other experts agree. Amanda Frost, who teaches immigration and citizenship law at the University of Virginia, could not speak to Musk’s case specifically, but says that having worked without authorization can be a bar to obtaining a green card."

WIRED · Elon Musk Could Have US Citizenship Revoked If He Lied on Immigration FormsVon Tim Marchman

Minor mystery re: US legal history:

I came across this 1989 pamphlet summarizing US Immigration law. The "PROBLEMS" list has 33 reasons the US might deny visitors/immigrants or require certain permits/visas/authorizations.

#24 is marked "[Repealed]". What was it, and when did Congress repeal it?

catalog.gpo.gov/F?func=find-b&+ lists the editions of this pamphlet; I think to read them I have to hit up a FDLD.
