I have to make something clear. I in no way shape or form intend to be a benevolent leader. I am there to make things work, bot be a lovey-dovey buddy to everybody. I will put the "dic" in "dictator".

Right. Just like Stalin and Hitler. I know it was a joke, but I'm just saying.
Quote:
1) Mandatory public service for citizenship. Not neccasserily military service, but everyone will be required to some how dedicate time and effort to the community.
|
Great idea. People should give back to the community for the betterment of soceity. But I don't think it would work, I mean, if people resent giving money for soceity's improvement, how hard are they going to work at mandatory public service?
Quote:
3) Cut farm subsidies. Sorry, Farmer BrownCorp, but if you can't grasp a simple concept like supply and demand, you shouldn't be running a bussiness.

Don't complain about farmers with your mouth full. Personally I don't like you Americans subsidizing the hell out of your farms in the face of international trade agreements, but there is a reason farms are subsidized. If too many farms go under... the US may have to import large amounts of food simply to avert famine. This would put you yanks in a very unfavourable position. And besides, everyone else does it, so if you stop, your farmers won't be able to compete, since imported foods will be cheaper. I guess tariffs could work for that.

4) Turn the screws on the Saudis. Hey 17 of 19 highjackers are Saudi, Ossama is Saudi, half the cash funding these outfits comes from SA, and were risking our asses to protect them from Saddam. Am I the only one who sees a problem here?
|
Good idea, except that might cause the Saudi's to turn the screws on your oil supplies.
Quote:
5) Push Women's Rights forward 50 years. I will do more for women's lib with one act than NOW did in the last 20 years. Women will now be required to fill out selective service forms when they turn 18. The glass ceiling will fall soon after.
|
Whats a selective service form? What will it do to the glass ceiling?
Quote:
6) Mandatory uniforms for schools that receive federal funding. I know it isn't the be all and end all to fixing the problems, but its a start.
|
All in all, your just another brick in the wall!
Quote:
7) Everywhere we have a base, I will let those people decide if they want us there. South Koreans want us to leave? OK, just don't whine when Kim Jong Il rolls into Seoul.
|
You think American troops are in South Korea to protect the poor little brown people? They're there to protect the balance of power, and to contain a threat to the status quo in Asia. So why would you find it ironic when they come whining when Kim Jong Il rolls into Seoul? Hell you'd be more concerned about than the goddam South Koreans!
Quote:
8) The Palestine issue will be settled by a steel cage death match between Sharon and Arafat.
|
Ya, because the strife in that area is all about the leaders of the country dragging an unwilling population into conflict. And don't worry, I knew it was a joke.
Quote:
9) Abortion will be a state issue.

:/
Quote:
10) Reality shows will be outlawed. If you can't put a quality show on the air, get the fuck out of the bussiness.
|
What happened to supply and demand? If farmer brown has to understand it, why can't you? There is a damand for shitty television, and these dumb fucks are meeting it. If you don't like it, go back to Russia!
Quote:
11) You will need a permit to have children. Parents doing a shitty job raising a kid put out something 100x more dangerous than a hunter, or fisherman or even a drunk driver.
|
This idea makes me want you to be a dictator with the power to enforce it
We really do have to re-evaluate all these notions of 'basic rights' when the excercise of them is so destructive.
Quote:
12) We stop trading with France until they send us Roman Polanski. Fuck them and their bullshit moral superiority. Bunch of hypocrites.

How could one statutory rapist mean that much to you? I'm pretty sure the sex was entirely consentual beyond the whole technicality thing. Sure he's a sick fuck, but he makes cool movies and who really gives that much of a fuck about one sick fuck?
Quote:
13) The DH and astroturf will be outlawed. And Bud Selig will be forced to actually watch his own team play.
