If you could change ONE thing in the world today...
 

What would it be?

For me, I would do away with illegal drugs.

If I could change anything, I would eliminate hypotheticals. If I couldn't do that, I would cure cancer.

I would put in place term limits for ALL political positions local and federal eliminating the current career politician mentality. Included in the implementation would be the immediate (within 6 months) replacement of any over age 70 (sorry about that but they too should be retired not retired in office). Secondly any in office more than two terms to be replaced within 12 months.

That everyone follow the Golden Rule.

I'd like to eliminate all the hatred in the world.

That all people would truly see through the antics of politicians and vote according to this, for our nation's failing health:

"A politician looks forward only to the next election. A statesman looks forward to the next generation."

--Thomas Jefferson

That people would pause a moment, look around, and be thankful for what they have.

I would start the human race all over again and hope we can get it right the second time

Good one Gracie.

I would castrate all pedophiles.

good one gracie
 

I would want all Muslims to love their world again!

:BigApplause: I wrote this in reply to another question and it was removed by Admin - hopefully your reply will stick!

Errr? How do you castrate women?

If I could change ONE thing in the world today it would be for all human beings to really understand the world they live in. In short be insightful. Because of this deficit we decide badly and often to harm or we are harmed by others because we lack understanding what they are capable of doing.

i would put traditional family values back in place with the woman staying home and raising the children while the man earned a living. Once that stopped it was all downhill.........

I would like to see ALL animal abuse stop. Living in a big city we see it on the news often where people leave their dogs chained up outside during extreme heat or cold. We see frail skinny dogs with their ribs showing and dogs that have been beaten. A few months ago someone threw some puppies out the car window while driving. This abuse breaks my heart.

I would like all dogs/cats to have a happy loving home.

Everyone would choose and fully experience the truth of God's love instead of the deceit and hatred of Satan.

Stop aging!
 

I would find a cure for aging. Aging is a sickness: Stop aging now!

Bring peace not war between the Israelis and Palestinians.

If this option had been available, at which point in your life would you have pushed the button to stop the aging process. For me, it would have been my mid forties.

Peace on earth.

Hatred!

I really believe that if anyone who has reached 70 and is not smart enough to retire and enjoy the balance of their lives lacks the intelligence to manage our government.

No more Cancer..
EVER !!

You might not like my answer and it would get deleted anyway.

I would put an end to canine illiteracy. I think it's a real shame that not all our furry little pooches not only can't read, but some haven't even been given a chance.

That all children be born into families with two loving parents.

Eliminate all those handy-dandy devices that shoot ammo & make it all too easy to kill & maime. Then maybe the NRA would go away, too.

I know you don't mean this but some might interpret this as approving all drugs. And then some would say that a dollop of wine was a drug. ( I know that wine is not illegal here)

While you are at it, take away all the knives, hammers, baseball bats, pressure cookers, etc, etc, etc, etc! A killer will find a weapon!

Wine is legal. Drugs that doctors give you to make you well are legal, even though they can be abused. If we could channel all of the money that illegal drug cartels make, and stop all of the damage and crime from people who are addicted who steal and attack people to support their addiction, none of us would have to be taxed at all.

A good share of crime would stop and people would think about working instead of getting high.

Mine can spell, we don't go "out", we go "o-u-t". So far they still can't read but they do find some books quite tasty.

Are you sure dogs can't read?
I've seen a few of those pink poodles at the Belvedere Lirary checking out books.

That's probably some of these old gals here that get them poodle perms and try to dye their white hair red, comes out pink.

:a20::a20:

I'm trying to stop but so far not succeeding .

but guns are so much more efficient for killing. no muss, no fuss.

besides, we need the other items on the list for their INTENDED purpose; knives to cut our food, hammers to drive nails, baseball bats to play baseball, pressure cookers to cook, etc, etc, etc, etc!!

guns are designed & manufactured for ONE purpose only: to wound & kill.

HUGE difference.

Damn! I got ripped off. I paid big bucks for a shotgun that was supposed to be designed specifically for shooting clay pigeons.

I would enforce prosecuting & holding responsible every doctor that performs abortion on anyone & at any gestation period. If a person who murders a pregnant woman is charged with & responsible for two murders then why do we pay doctors to committ the same crime? Taking the life of a defenseless infant is the most vicious & cruel act imaginable & both the mother & doctor should pay for such a crime-MURDER.

I agree.

:agree: If I could change one thing, it would be to end abuse of the innocent and vulnerable ..... children, animals and the elderly.
