the one where I spout off some Utopian crap

So, I stopped taking the meds and already the pain is lessened to the point where I can *just* stand straight. Amazing. And good, too: I was in *such* a bitchy mood to-day that it just wasn't funny.

**********

If I owned the entire planet, things would be run a bit differently: North Americans would *all* have to speak at least two of the official North American languages (and at least one other tongue would be a bonus, good for a break in one's income taxes every year), and movies and music originating in the US would have an extra 'Lowest Common Denominator' tax added on.

The US forces would be cut back to purely defence roles as would those of other aggressor nations like the UK, and Israel and its enemies. All weapons-oriented research would have to be shared equally among UN member-states, which would, in turn, have disputes settled by international tribunal.

Businesses would be forced to pay fair rates and wages, and NAFTA would be dissolved and replaced by an EU-style union with a revolving Presidency, each nation's term lasting 5 years. The environment would take precedence over fiscal concerns, as would things like human dignity and socialised healthcare.

Nations would once again be more important than businesses, but overt patriotism would be punishable by fines. The maximum size flag one would be allowed to wear would be 12 cm (or about 5 inches) across. A single person would be allowed ONE flag on their garments at any given time, backpacks included.

There would be one global currency (we'd prolly standardise on the Euro at first then slowly bring everyone on board), and standards of living would be equal everywhere. People who love each other across international boundaries would have no let or hindrance keeping them from being together.

Women would be paid the same as men and never be afraid to walk home in the dark. A harassment complaint would be taken seriously, not matter *what* the person's gender or colour, you ignorant prigs.

Oh, and for Gossakes, the rank of 'lieutenant' would be, all over the English-speaking world, pronounced as it was meant to be: 'Lef-tenant.'

More to come as more people piss me off, I'm certain. Keep notes, you'll be tested later.
