The Danny Glover thread got me thinking, we're all so quick to judge the powers that be. I think it's easy to judge, but not so easy to do the right things if you're in power, but assuming you were, what would you do if you were in charge?
Off the top of my head, the only thing I can think of immediately that would be feasible without coming up with more money etc. would be to make prostitution legal. I see no downside to that at all.
The other thing I'd like to do is make sure that everyone gets an education, and if they're not qualified for higher education, make sure that they are qualified with a trade/marketable skill. Not sure how I'd make this happen, but I'd put some time into it.
OK, I need more coffee before I can think deeper.
