Your opinion is wanted

**stormcrow** · 02-08-2011 05:46 AM

Simply put "What do you think would make the world a better place?"

My example: If people took the time to get to know themselves and take responsibility for their actions the world would be a better place.

I know some of you will find this redundant but I am genuinely interested in everyone's opinions.

i think every country having a corruption free democracy would do the world wonders

**no-Name** · 02-08-2011 06:01 AM

not thinking in objectives

**Drokens** · 02-08-2011 06:06 AM

Thinking more objectively.

**stormcrow** · 02-08-2011 06:08 AM

How about thinking more in general?

That would probably be best.

Most people are stupid, people should listen instead of talk.

**stormcrow** · 02-08-2011 08:06 AM

If people valued their relationships with other people more than they valued material gain, the world would be a better place.

Legalize marijuana world-wide. Everyone will be to stoned to give a shit

funny joke, though

Probably a hostile, humanoid alien invasion force.

What if lucid dreaming was a common every day thing?

**MindGames** · 02-08-2011 06:48 PM

I believe the world would be a better place if the majority of people could lucid dream. They would feel less of a need to fuck others over to get what they want, since you can do anything you want inside of a lucid dream.

Other than that, I think the world would be a better place if I got super rich.

I would invest in an ingenious product whose profits are devoted entirely to solving major problems around the world.

I would also buy myself a Lamborghini Concept S and a sick mansion.

If people could see past their own selfish wants and share resources.

**Descensus** · 02-08-2011 07:09 PM

The dismissal of anthropomorphic religion and the application of the free market economics, specifically Austrian.

(But really, who didn't expect this answer

)

all that needs to be said...

**MindGames** · 02-08-2011 08:23 PM

In response to that, I quote myself again

There's no reason why someone shouldn't enjoy their own success if they're rich.

As long as the large majority of someone's money is used to help others.

**Shadow27** · 02-08-2011 08:58 PM

Oh I totally agree I was just pointing out the connection

**~~DeletePlease~~** · 02-08-2011 09:12 PM

People should stop looking for political messiahs and focus on what has been done, and why certain things havent been done yet. Taking Fox "News" off the air and indefinitely imprisoning Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and Bill O'reilly would probably save a couple lives as well.

**Zhaylin** · 02-09-2011 06:05 AM

Wow... this is a tough one and I've really enjoyed everyone's answers (if only because of the chuckles they gave

)

I think the world would be a better place if... ??? ... everyone was rationally empathetic.
I would like for people to place others first, without being enablers or unproductive or self-destructive habits and such.

**Suscitatsio** · 02-09-2011 06:12 AM

If everyone read two books: Ishmael and The Sacred Balance.

**StonedApe** · 02-09-2011 06:25 AM

People actually communicating with each other rather than at each other. Mainly needed in schools.

Also legalize drugs, their illegality does nothing but create crime.

Agreed. Damn racism inspired, politically motivated, profit corrupted "War On Drugs"...
