I 100% agree that you shouldn't have to pay for the community proposals out of pocket.
But Making the DAO burn DEC for them makes zero sense. Why drain the DAO of assets just because the community wants to hold a vote? The whole point of a proposal requiring a DEC burn is to discourage proposal spam. These proposals, being community proposals, are by their very nature the opposite of spam.
They should be free, with perhaps a limited number per month.
I support this too. I voted for this because I felt it was least contentious. However if a new proposal came up to remove the cost to the DAO for exactly your reasons, then I would support that too.
Could suggest this as a community proposal. Nothing says we have to keep it this way.
Agree and Agree. limited number absolutely. also, if this proposal is any example of the type of proposals that we are going to get then this is a very bad investment. the current proposal is entirely to broad, sets no limitations or guidelines, essentially providing a blank check to the taxpayer slush fund to one person. We need to be able to at least cut off the power of this proposal without needing to submit a proposal. otherwise it's just politics with a few whales to maintain the status quo. I could also see lobbying/corruption where people just pay him 30k DEC to make a proposal they want using the DAO's 100k or something like that. too much room for corruption here.
