Measurement Cadence
- Leading indicators: monthly publication.
- Lagging indicators: quarterly and annual publication.
- Recession and demographic stress scenarios: annual stress-test update.
Metrics Layer
No proposal is complete until it defines what success and failure look like, how often results are published, and what triggers revision.
Core Scoring Rubric
- Freedom impact
- Leave-no-one-behind effectiveness
- Contribution incentives
- Fiscal sustainability
- Implementability
- Capture resistance
Use a consistent scorecard across policy areas so tradeoffs are legible and comparable.
Automatic Triggers
- Budget overrun thresholds trigger implementation review.
- Persistent incentive failures trigger rule adjustment proposals.
- Missed outcome floors trigger sunset or redesign review.
Metrics Stewardship
The framework assigns a dedicated metrics steward role to define indicators, publishing cadence, and auditable methodology. This prevents selective reporting and keeps correction loops explicit.
