Ask Lemmy

I would automatically forgive every debt of every person in the bottom 75% of income.

I would then institute a new currency that cannot be exchanged for the old currency and devalue all currently existing currency in the world.

I would replace all of those currencies with a credit, where one credit is worth one hour of unskilled labor, meaning that the minimum wage would be set to one credit.

Developing new skills and providing that labor at higher skill levels would give you federally mandated minimum multipliers of your minimum wage.

Worldwide I would make it a rule that the C level executives of any company are directly personally responsible for the actions of their company as a whole, meaning that if a mining company chooses to disregard safety measures and get one of their workers killed then all of the executives of that company are guilty of manslaughter and will be tried as if they personally slaughtered that man.

Every company that is currently traded on the stock market would have to have external oversight so that they cannot monopolize their field.

Every company that utilizes software must submit their software to a federally secured library with all of the source code and all of the steps needed to recreate their software.

This will be given copyright protections for 21 years, after which time the code will become public domain.

All copyright will be set to 21 years from the date of its creation.

All nuclear weapons will be destroyed and converted into fuel for nuclear reactors.

Every person currently in prison who did not commit a violent act will be automatically pardoned.

Any person who did commit a violent act and who has more than 10 years left on their sentence will be immediately executed.

The maximum amount of time a person can be incarcerated will be capped at 10 years. If a person does a crime that requires incarceration of greater than 10 years time they will be executed.

If a prisoner participates in a work program they will receive the minimum wage that they deserve based off of their qualifications.

I would also abolish all health insurance and instead transition to single-payer across the world. All hospitals will be nationalized and required to achieve a set minimum capability to be certified as a hospital.

I would forgive all debts between nations and remove all tariffs as this is now my world and there are no debts between my Nations and there are no tarrifs between my Nations.

Every country or collective will be given the absolute right to operate with its own presidents and leaders and groupings as they so choose without molestation from other people or groups.

In the event of a dispute there will be a world Court and you will argue your side with the world Court and if they are unable to make a decision then it will be given to general vote to decide the outcome.

Being as that there are no officially established Nations anymore, people will not require visas. You will have a license to operate a vehicle and the freedom to go wherever you are capable of going in the entire world.

I would also demilitarize the world to a reasonable degree and spread out small militias to act as a policing force.

Of the police would no longer have qualified immunity in America or anywhere in the world and every police person would carry a camera on them at all times when they are performing their duties.

Turning off the camera or having a malfunction in that camera that is not immediately reported while you are interacting with a member of the public will be grounds for severe consequences up to and including execution.

After that I would just steer the course we haven't landed on Mars yet we've not begun to colonize the solar system we haven't repaired the damage to the planet there would be several special interest groups established to achieve those things and if despite my utopian concept the majority of the world decides that I'm not worth it than it the very least I'll have made enough positive impact to be satisfied with the outcome.
