If you could make one law, what would you do?

If you were privileged to make one law, what would you choose (the obvious things like gay mariage doesn't count as those are already being worked on)

I would probably abolish the state monopoly on alcohol.

@themajormayor: YOu mean the extra taxes you pay on alcohol?

No, I mean that the state has a monopoly to sell alcohol.

@themajormayor: ah, like russia?

Worse, Sweden. I doubt Russia has such a monopoly.

@themajormayor: about 20% of their nationall income is alcohol

Decriminalize drugs, as Portugal did. Far, far too many people are being sent to jail in the United States for simply possessing drugs like marijuana.

@YearoftheSnake5: The funny thing is, when they legalise it they can get money and stuff from it :p

@dylandr: What's funny(or sad) is that, despite that possibility, the folks in office don't seem to want the money.

@YearoftheSnake5: They want to STEAL the money, not honestly earn it... :p

I'd make eating meat illegal.

I´m not so certain about decriminalizing drugs, to tell you the truth I do no understand drug consumers, I´m a veterinarian and have legal access to some really interesting stuff ( at animal concentration which may be two or three times more potent ) and never had the interest of trying them on me.

I would make it to where when you die, your body organs should go to science. So much needed for the sick. Should be obligated to donate, would help so many. That would be my law.

@megane: Why?

This is actually a good idea IMO.

We (Portugal) survived it without us all turning into junkies XD To be honest I didn't even know about drugs being decriminalised until I read about it here a few years ago.

@plageus900:

Animals are people too.

@megane: lol.

Free Healthcare for all. Taxes out the ass? Yes. But would be worth it for everybody.

Only one is not enough.

Liking Justin Bieber on any social media or video hosting site will be punishable by death.

@megane: Then i'd make canibalism legal so i could still eat my steak xD

Ban persona series.

@Gamerno6666: what about making feminists a radical organisation?

i want all taxes paid by earthlings to go to my bank account.

...... I wouldn't wanna touch that with a 50 foot pole.

But i heared that feminists wanted to ban anime for being overly sexual :o

I would outlaw usury. St. Thomas Aquinas was right.

@silkylove: I believe that is already illegal in many countries, including The netherlands germany and austria

@dylandr:

Yeah there are countries where it's outright illegal or restricted. But the problem is that rich people can still move their money to countries where it's legal and just make more money off interest, thus increasing the already absurd wealth gap. This is why 1% own nearly half the global wealth. And there are organizations that look the other way because there's too much money to be made off the backs of the poor, and I'm not just talking about pawn brokers. Major churches also look the other way.

FORCE education on everyone. At least, High School Graduation.

A law that prohibits lobbyists from fucking around in congress.

@thegerg: No, thanks.

make colleges ad universities free

or banned alcohol (beer) from being sold in super markets and from being advertised on tv

@dylandr: The Purge. I wouldn't kill anyone, but for my protection I would pay a lot of coin to hire some "thugs" to have me protected as I walk out in the streets. I would go to my nearest Aston Martin or Lamborghini dealer and with my new friends I'd take one of each vehicles home. Remember everything is legal for that one night so instead of taking lives, I'd take things that'd make my life better. If anyone tried to get in my way, well I wouldn't get my hands dirty.

Make consensual sex 15.

@Gaming-Planet: You're 15 aren't you? Actually no, asking that question can get me into trouble lel.

@BattleSpectre: maybe he's 21 and it's a disturbing question

@dylandr: That would be quite disturbing and not allowed on this site, or anywhere for that matter.

So it's okay for other animals to eat animals....we just can't eat them. Awesome logic.

I would make taking my income illegal, flat rate or service taxes only. You buy more, you pay more. Everyone then pays their fair share since the rich will be buying yachts and ferraris and the poor won't.

Hell, you would even get revenue from crack dealers and tourists when they buy goods in America.

@BattleSpectre: in jail Kappa

It would definitely be something science related. Like making it illegal to teach non-science in schools, or a requirement of people to contribute to our science related endeavors. Seriously America is falling way behind in the learning department.

@ferrari2001: because that isn't the way of god apearantly, the christian dark ages weren't depressing for nothing :p
