Optimocracy: Evidence-Based Governance Through Outcome-Bound Optimization

Political dysfunction (cronyism, short-termism, and misalignment between political incentives and citizen outcomes) costs society an estimated 20% of potential GDP (the "Political Dysfunction Tax"). Optimocracy proposes outcome-bound governance systems that optimize for Health & Wealth (median healthy life years + real after-tax median income growth), using evidence-based recommendations and independent verification to align both budget allocation and policy choices with citizen welfare.
