The problem is he is too general. You seem to think I'm asking for point by point, I am asking for general ideas. He says he doesn't vote because our current system of gov't doesn't work. Fine, then what system would work better?
For a general example, take the first Starship Troopers movie. In that movie only citizens can vote; and to become a citizen you had to perform a certain level of public service. That was really a tertiary point of the movie, but the writters had come up with it. And I described it in one line.
As for my critiques of society, I think the single biggest one is the level of poverty world-wide. Some things that could be done:
- Tax (North) American junk food, and that tax money goes towards creating infrastructure in the 3rd world.
- Allow for engineers, doctors, teachers, and others who would have to travel to those 3rd world countries to set up said infrastructure to have free post secondary. This could be done with student loan forgiveness.
- Give other tax breaks to individuals who would help with building in those 3rd world countries. However the charities receiving the help would have to be subject to serious audits. Even allow airlines to offer free flights to people willing to travel to help, and the airlines can get a tax credit of a full fare.
There- 3 examples off the top of my head; and I wasn't even called for an interview by the BBC.
