Hi I think your ideal election package sounds great and why should you be dreaming? All these things could be possible if only ordinary people would support them. It seems these ideas have been around for ages but people's attitudes to things are still in the dark ages unfortunately. Politicians like John Howard keep us there and the media often doesn't really help to support rational thinking because they want to sensationalise things.
