king or queen of the USA

[dasbow]

If you were to be granted the title of King or Queen of the USA and you had absolute power, what is the first thing you would change.

I would make buying/owning a gun as difficult as getting a CDL license. Written tests, so many hours of training, etc. I am a firm believer in the right to keep and bear arms, but when our founding fathers drafted the Constitution there was nowhere near the crazies that we have today, no drug trade, etc. That and you had to go to a gunsmith anyway whereas today guns are mass produced and easier to acquire.

I'd make it a crime for reporters to be biased, to "afflict the comfortable and comfort the afflicted". Their job is to tell us what happened, when it happened, and where it happened. Full stop. After all, when the Constitution was ratified there were no high speed presses, radio, telephone, internet, satellite.
