Here's a possible temporary patch on the proposal system, pending
upmutation of the right bits of the proposal system:
{{{
Enact a rule with Power=2, title "Public Policy", and text:
The Speaker is obliged to veto any Ordinary Proposal whose effect
if adopted would in eir estimation achieve any of these results:
* seriously hinder the adoption of Democratic proposals
* allow any person or group of people to seriously hinder the
adoption of Democratic proposals; for the purposes of this clause
a player voting AGAINST a proposal does not thereby seriously
hinder its adoption
* allow the adoption of Democratic proposals where the proportion
of players expressing an opinion who vote in favour is less
than AI/(AI+1)
