Ideas, not Monologues

Why Is This Idea Important?: Too many use this forum to upload their carefully crafted and endlessly expanded upon hobby horse. If they can't express it in 500 words, they probably don't understand it themselves, or they're just in love with their own words. [posted earlier, but I haven't seen it yet, so . . .]

Make a text limit of 500 words for each Idea submitted, and another 250 words for the reason why.

    This is a good idea. I often see posts that contain too many ideas to be digestible; or alternately, a single screed of incomprehensible material that seems to go on forever. There are also ideas that I agree in large part with, but cannot vote for due to some isolated yet critical failing that could be easily separated.

    (If the president should get line item veto, why can't I have it here?)

    Having a two page word limit would require that only the most important parts of the idea be posted. Single ideas that only change one aspect of things are also much more likely to be implementable than sweeping reforms.
