Philosophical Question: What would you change about the world? |
A worldwide ban on lending people or any other institution more than 10 times their annual income and the reintroduction of the gold standard.
Fun fact: the average marriage length hasn't changed much in the past few centuries, back then people just tended to die first. Also, back then you were forced to stay in your relationship by society and the church no matter how unhappy and abusive they were.
There was never a time in our history where your partnership mindset had prominence. No matter where you look in history you'll find plenty of [interest expletives here]. In your "protohistory" before writing, in early civilization humanity spent its days in fear. We worked much of our day to get the food we needed to survive, and died from what are now simple ailments. The population was dominated by a tiny elite class which livedcin comparable luxury. War and internal power struggles were anything but rare. People invented religions to explain things and those would rise to dominate their lives. And no, I have not been playing too many video games or watching too much Game of Thrones.
What's the relevance of that?

I would restore Faith
Not the big bloke in the sky kind but the belief that mankind can advance, that it can solve its problems and that it can do this before we destroy the conditions that permit our species to thrive on this planet If we wipe ourselves out the planet would soon recover
I have faith in humanity, but it lies in the stars.

One simple thing. Either eliminate smoking, or make smoking super healthy
Off the top of my head:
I would completely eliminate Monetary Value. Without Monetary Value, people would work solely for the good of their fellow man. Thus, eliminating poverty and financial status. Restrict weapons to only those deemed responsible enough through a series of scenarios of my own making and judge actions accordingly. I would also overhaul the judicial process so lawyers would not work against each other, but together to discover the truth. |
