If you had the power to implement any social/economical order in the US today, what would that order be and how would you implement it (step by step) - elaborate (characters of peoople in charge of important roles in society, political order, flag change, national goals, foreign policy, etc.). It can be a mash of political/social orders, doesn’t have to be a particular one, you can call it whatever you like. The same goes for the rest of the social roles and political order, doesn’t have to be written in books, it can be a mash of whatever you think is right for the particular scenario.

    I’m for reasonable gun control. Waiting periods, no fully automatic weapons. And the US is on the decline from being a superpower now. I don’t need or want America to be the world police. The world should have more partnerships, treaties, and such, and less superpowers dominating the landscape.

    I don’t think we should be grooming children for leadership, I think leaders will emerge naturally as people grow and develop. We should be giving children resources to be their best selves with free education, housing, and food. People can elect those who feel best represent them and their interests. I’m a moral relativist, mores and values shift constantly and it is hard to predict what would be best with future technologies and societies.

      Reasonable, agrred.

      Agreed, but not what most US citizens like to hear… cuz like it or not, that will also impact economical power, which will translate into less for everyone. Not necessarily poor, but the upper middle class will be dropped to lower middle… and they’re still a large percentage of the population.

      Mhm, agree on this as well. But, I believe that if we are to survive as a species, leaders need to appointed, not elected. The only logical answer that came to mind as how can this peron be trusted is to be “programmed” from child with values that reflect the current social order and moral values.

      Still, we’ll see, I may be wrong about this, but the current system doesn’t work well either. It’s easilly corruptable.
