The wife's investment
Occasionally when something annoys me I will make a comment to MBW that starts with, If I were Czar of the universe
, and then fill in the solution to the annoying problem.
So if you were Czar of the Universe, what would be your top 5 edicts?
Mine in no particular order:
1. Left lane lolligaggers, (driving in the left lane when not passing), would immediately have their cars impounded until they complete Autobahn driver re-education. This would also apply to talking on a cell phone while driving.
2. Charity would go back to being the responsibility of the local community, not the federal or state government. Then the community would make sure those that need help get only the best help and those that are just plain lazy get nothing.
3. Marriage would be what it has always been end of story.
4. Education up to some useful trade/skill/profession would be mandatory. The entire education system would be revamped to allow students at the lowest levels to advance in their strong skills without being limited by age related classes. In fact the whole concept of first, second, third grade etc. would be completely eliminated and replaced with learning blocks that once mastered would allow the student to advance to the next level in that area, regardless of age or the proficiency of unrelated areas.
5. Abortion would be the #1 crime against humanity, with punishment of death by the very same humane instruments they use to perform their ugly trade. Any exceptions would be handled on a case by case basis by a special panel of experts and would never be used to make blanket exceptions or to bolster the arguments of any other case.
Serious or funny what would your top 5 be? I have others that could easily be there, depending on the day.
