If you could control what is going on in the world. . What would you change?? How would you change it?????

Boy this is a loaded question I have to give it some thought only because there is so much to change at the moment. Actually I think will be forced to change for the better as we have practiced "Greed and Me" way to long. Now we have to pay for it and hopefully come out a better world for it.

I think free and excellent health care for all. I know that sounds CRAZY to most. But what i see that is going on now. Is SOOOO very sad for some:(

CARLA · Post by **CARLA** » Sun Nov 23, 2008 3:35 pm

Yes it is sad. I spent 22 year in the Hospital Industry and I can honestly say I'm not sure there is a solution that will provide for everyone unless it is run by the government, this would be a mistake. I do agree coverage need to be available for everyone somehow. The problem is we provide health care for many who are not even citizen's of this country the burden this put on all our Hospitals is over the top. I could go on for days about it but no point your right we need to provide better care for our citizen's somehow.

But how the average Joe is being raped by DR'S,hospitals, and RX. The cost of any lab work is NUTS:mad: Is there really a reason for it?? Then to be turned away, Because your plan. Does not cover.

I think I'd ban personal computers and phones and telex machines and radio transmitters and most especially of all televisions. And CD players and cassette players and reel-to-reel tape machines. And iPods.

I would bring the world back to independence by becoming self reliant. How? By scrapping many government aid programs..

The entire world? Not just the USA?

That's optimism for you.

You're quite sure that the ills of all the countries on the planet are all down to government aid programs? Not just America's?

I would destroy all weapons of mass destruction and their means of production - the hell with the unemployment we'll sort that out later.

Borscht is any of various eastern European soups made with beets, cabbage, potatoes, or other vegetables and served hot or chilled, often with sour cream.

If eaten after it goes bad ........ WMD. [smilie=3,13,16]
