The Playground Act
Preamble
Whereas it has become evident that the President’s leadership has led to misguided decision-making, and recognizing that the nation’s best interests are served by competent, balanced oversight, this Act mandates a regular period during which the President relinquishes control of critical functions. During this designated time—referred to as “Playground Time”—a specially composed committee shall assume the reins of decision-making, ensuring that actions taken in the President’s absence remain final and beyond retrospective alteration.
Section 1: Purpose and Objectives
1.1 Purpose:
To temporarily remove the President from the decision-making process, thereby allowing a coalition of qualified leaders to manage national affairs while the President engages in designated recreational activities.
1.2 Objectives:
a. Shield the nation from the consequences of ineffective presidential management.
b. Delegate authority to a balanced committee comprised of members from both the opposing and affiliated political parties.
c. Allow the President time to reflect and, perhaps, find personal improvement—all without interfering with critical national decisions.
Section 2: Designated Playground Time
2.1 Duration:
The President shall observe “Playground Time” for a minimum of one to two hours daily, during which all executive decision-making responsibilities are suspended.
2.2 Scope:
Throughout Playground Time, the President is relieved from engaging in any managerial or control-related tasks, effectively stepping aside to enable the designated committee to oversee national affairs.
2.3 Permissible Activities:
The President may engage in recreational activities such as games, creative pursuits, or other endeavors that symbolize a complete disengagement from the burdens of leadership.
Section 3: Delegation of Decision-Making
3.1 Alternate Authority Composition:
During Playground Time, decision-making responsibilities shall be delegated to a designated committee consisting of five members—three from the opposing political party and two from the President’s affiliated party—to ensure balanced oversight.
3.2 Transition Protocol:
A pre-established communication protocol shall guarantee a smooth transition of authority. This protocol will ensure that national decisions are made promptly and without confusion, even in the President’s absence.
3.3 Irrevocability of Delegated Decisions:
Decisions and actions taken by the designated committee during Playground Time shall be final. The President shall have no authority to modify, revoke, or alter any actions made in his/her absence, ensuring continuity and stability in governance.
Section 4: Implementation Guidelines
4.1 Notification:
The commencement and conclusion of Playground Time must be publicly announced within the government to reaffirm the temporary reassignment of executive responsibilities.
4.2 Documentation:
The President is encouraged to maintain a lighthearted log of activities during Playground Time for personal reflection and potential self-improvement, though such records shall have no bearing on decisions made during his/her absence.
4.3 Contingencies:
In the event of an urgent matter, the designated committee shall address the situation immediately. No emergency shall be grounds for the President to reassert authority or later override the committee’s decisions.
Section 5: Oversight and Enforcement
5.1 Compliance:
Strict adherence to this Act is required. Non-compliance by the President may result in further reassignment of duties or additional measures to safeguard the nation’s operational integrity.
5.2 Review Process:
A quarterly review will assess the impact of this Act on national governance and determine whether further adjustments to leadership responsibilities are necessary.
Conclusion
By enacting this revised Playground Act, the nation acknowledges the need to temporarily remove ineffective leadership from the decision-making process. While the President partakes in designated recreational activities, the balanced, irrevocable decisions of the five-member committee—composed of three opposing and two affiliated party members—will guide national affairs. This framework ensures that actions taken in the President’s absence remain final, thereby protecting the integrity and continuity of governance.
