de-criminalize marijuana... seriously, the drug wars haven't worked for 20 years, it's only wasted a lot of tax dollars, killed a lot of people, and put a lot of innocent people in jail that just want to chill out. Not to say I'm a partaker, but I still think the law is stupid. I'm not saying it should be anarchy, limit the amount your allowed to have on you, fine those that exceed it. Putting people in jail for smoking something that grows out of the ground with no harm to the body (only positive side effects) is retarded. If the government could figure out a way to tax it, they would.

I don't think it was ever intended to end drug use. I think it was an excuse to be afraid of yet another invisible enemy, like the Communist scare before it, and the Terrorist scare after it. I think it's been a successful 20 years for its intended purpose: we voted right-wing and sent big funds to right-wing groups like law enforcement. Did you know we have more people in jail, per capita, than any other nation on the planet? True. 40% or so are in for drug-related charges. "Land of the free, home of the brave"? Not recently.

1.) Hire struggling college graduates of law more than they'll make in their life time to investigate wall street. It has to be enough that they are bribe proof. Hang all traders/investors/raiders who have breached the law.
2.) Impose a bottom up money system. You give a struggling family $100,000 USD that can be spent on anything besides electronics... It'll be gone in less than a week (even if they just buy stupid stuff like food, new clothes, or shoes). If you buy locally, you get 10% back (from the tax payers not the business owner). That money will then redistribute to small shop owners who then buy more supplies from manufactures. More labor jobs will then start happening and you almost got yourself a functioning economy.
3.) (This one hits close to home) Pay engineers (read "do-ers") more than their MBA counterparts (aka if you go to meetings over 45% of the day you get a 30% reduction in pay
4.) Restart NASA with half the US Military budget... Ensure that NASA works with other countries to stretch as many resources to as many brilliant minds as possible.
5.) Drop a lot of marijuana over every nation that is currently in conflict... Come back in 6 months later and start trading so we can increase their quality of life...
6.) Elect Ron Paul as US President.Oh man, I went on a rant... lol

The test to obtain your drivers license would also include an IQ test and would have to be taken every 10 years.

I was thinking something similar. Every 5-10 years you have to take another test. Some people are just ridiculously shitty drivers.

@chaomancer: If you're Dutch, I associate because as a young child my Mother's friend who was Dutch always wore them; all my visits to the Netherlands I have never once seen a pair!
If you are German, I have seen many; perhaps they all come from the one leather wearing region?

I doubt this was your intention (judging from the picture ;-)) but I can't stop hearing this quote in my head from your TT:
"In the world I see – you're stalking elk through the damp canyon forests around the ruins of Rockefeller Center. You'll wear leather clothes that will last you the rest of your life. You'll climb the wrist-thick kudzu vines that wrap the Sears Tower. And when you look down, you'll see tiny figures pounding corn, laying strips of venison on the empty car pool lane of some abandoned superhighway." - Tyler DurdenJul 27, 2011 17:22 by superc0w. -

Certain illegal substances would be made legal, regulated, free (or low cost), and delivered fresh daily if so desired.
Also, because I can't choose just one, all means of travel (cars, boats, bikes, etc.) would be equipped with a devise that absolutely prevents dangerous and a$$hole behavior. Should someone still manage to elude the system, the vehicle would have an auto shutdown, and even an auto lock down if required.

I'm all for legalizing certain substances. Your second decree may not be necessary if we legalize stuff. If you do go ahead with the second decree, I think the entire world would soon come to a halt ;)

Decree 1) Redistribute the wealth. 2) Jail Bush for crimes against humanity & shredding the constitution. Decree 3) Make newsmedia monopolies illegal (Goodbye, Rupert Murdoch). Decree 4) People could live and work in any country they want to, in the same way that companies now feel free to set up shop in any country: turnabout is fair play. Decree 5) No inherited wealth or power beyond the equivalent of 150,000 dollars. (So then I wouldn't be king, nor would my heirs). Oh, yes, and there'd be a heavy tax on gasoline that would go to supporting public transportation.
