Transparency in govt. regulation and lobby monitoring reform
Post all regulations by industry and companies that are in compliance and those who are not. The simple act of this audit will allow citizens to check in on both companies and those assigned (govt.) to regulate. If a checks-and-balances system were actually in place, maybe the credit derivatives market would not have transacted $256 trillion of business on the OTC without someone screaming "STOP!"
Lobby groups should have transparency by registering online and all meetings with congress and senate persons must appear in an online calendar with all documents (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.) posted so we see how discussions are being framed from the lobby group's point of view. Also, all registered lobbiest should only be allowed on the Hill on one specific day per week. No lunches. No dinners. And no meetings out-of-office (island trips etc.) meetings or their registration is revoked and the govt. official is warned of the infraction; with the infraction and which group the infraction occurred posted on the group calendar site where citizens would log on to view and monitor.
