I would unite the Western World as it never has been. I would require all nations to contribute an amount of money and people equal to the amount the US does for defense and pro-rate it for difference in number of citizens. I would then use the force to forcefully democratize the entire continent of Africa and provide education to a small cadre who would then educate the rest of their countrymen in health, agriculture, business. I would make sure we stay on friendly terms with India, but would contain China. I would make it a crime that is always implemented with punishment for many years in general prisons for any politician to accept money from any Corporate source. I would require all elections to take place using public funding flattening the board and insuring all those eligible could run for office. I would then increase senators terms to 4 years with a maximum of 8 years so they could spend their time governing instead of trying to raise money for the campaign all the time. If you got caught influence peddling..... 20 years in the general prison population, no exceptions. I would ensure that all people who graduate from High School got either a paid University Education at their states school, or if you weren't college material, an education at a technical school. Kids coming out of college with $100,000 in debt is helping no one. A highly educated population helps everyone, including the country. I would allow for immigration for limited periods of time so our crops can be picked, but allowing companies to import immigrants just because they don't want to pay US wages must stop.

sizz new world........rule number one 1# all Moderators must be stone sober, showing no excessive use of intoxicating drink or extreme qualities of fantasy, emotion, and prejudice before posting to this thread...........lol Sizz: You just have to know that this high paying job creates a lot of stress  that only alcohol is the only outlett. However I just have to say that I feel like moderators on this site display no prejudice that I am aware of. All posters are appreciated unless they cross over the line which rarely happens. When It does happen, we do our well paying jobs by doing our job. The only moderators that get out of line are Tony, Al, Mike and Paul Paul E. Smith Knoxville, TN

The 1366 I mentioned serve for life, and the day after. They are the holders of the seats on the NYSE. And, in my humble opinion, they rule the world. And if it wasn't for moderators "taking the edge off" guys like me and sizz would end up with one of these  after our names

Are we all chomping, champing, or is it chafing at the bit holding our tongues on Roadfood.com?
