    When I become Supreme World Dictator...

    ...I will immediately bulldoze all golf courses and replace them with shifter kart tracks. The world will thank me.

    And all government business will be conducted in LOLSpeak.



    What would you do?

    Build my own personal Humanoid Mecha, around 1 story high.

    Seriously though:
    1) Population control
    2) Repeal of all religious laws
    3) Intense energy research (Fusion mostly)
    4) Science and critical thinking education (so people won't be easily manipulated).

    Quit.

    Life is too short to deal with the load of crappola that would occupy every waking minute of every day if you were in charge of the world and actually gave a darn.

    This ought to be good to see - someone becomes supreme world dictator, but not of his own volition.

    The unauthorized alteration of Christmas song lyrics for commercial purposes will be punishable by death. No exceptions. No appeals.

    Repeal all laws with religious aspects. Doesn't matter how small or how large. Religion has no place in politics.

    Repeal all laws which impede on ANY group's civil rights, and forbid the passage of any law that would impede on said rights.

    There's the holiday spirit for you Christmas has turned into a season of aggravation, such as:

    How come I started hearing Christmas muzak in the stores two weeks before Thanksgiving?

    Once he gets through the insulation, you won't have to worry too much about him climbing the tree.

    well I used electrical tape around the areas where he was biting, and then I am going to duct tape the cord to the ground, leading to the outlet.

    Go buy a Habenero pepper, slice it open, and rub it along the cord. That should keep the cat from biting it. Don't tell anyone else in your family, either. That should give them some excitement later on.

    If you make abortion illegal, it will just go to back alleys, and not only will the babies die, but so will the mothers. I personally don't support abortion, but I sure as hell don't want to see any laws made governing the issue for women. If a woman chooses to have an abortion, she alone must live with the moral consequences, as opposed to killing the baby AND the mother, and now the government can be held responsible.
