"On the Citizen House: A Disquisitive Fiction" is a novella of ideas in the form of socratic dialogue wrapped up in a road trip. Formatted as a proto-screenplay, description is sparse, characterization thin. Dialogue and visuals dominate.The Citizen House is the world's first national legislature chosen as the original Athenian democrats did -- by sortition (random selection). Two representatives face the challenges of advocating for their disparate views (eugenics / universal basic income) among a legislature demographically more reflective of the entire population than any other.
