If You Were In Charge

[Vianna]

1. Terrorism?

2. Unemployment?

3. Creative accounting & other funny business among corporate heads?

Prosecute these guys, especially that Enron Guy. Frankly I don't know how these guys cook the books like they do. Don't they have to be audited by an outside source?

4. Congressional stalemates?

5. Hate crimes (assuming you consider the category a separate, valid one)?

6. Crime & punishment in general?

7. War & the military?

8. Education (or, more accurately, public schooling)?

Get rid os SOL's in Virginia...the idea of holding people to standards isn't a bad one butyou have to watch teaching to the tests and not teaching anything else...

9. The rivenness of American social life (in other words, the deep splits between ideologies that affect all aspects of experience)? People have to be taught to respect all beliefs..

I have a question: What would you do if you were president about the great economic splits in the country? The inequality here I think breeds some of the other stuff-like hate crimes...I also find it ridiculous that a nation as rich as this one is (not the gov't-I mean ordinary citizens) should have homeless people in the streets..

this is a great thread-i need to thin k some more about it..

Above all, you're the president . . . so have fun!
