3. I would defund until I choked the life out of the MIC....
If I could pick one permanent change to make in the world-- absolute power, on my say so-- it would be to cut U.S. military spending by 75% or more. Not to save money, especially, but rather to hamstring the generals and their MIC cohorts in the "defense industry." While diverting the money to other uses is desirable, simply starving the MIC beast is justification enough.
U.S. out of Iraq and Afghanistan NOW! (And Pakistan, Libya, Yemen, etc!)
And if I could make just one change in the world, mike_c, it would be to fully reinstate the
Code Duello into society, because all too often, DUmbshits such as yourself spout the stupidest, least fact-based shit imaginable without any means of holding you accountable for what issues forth from that stinking, festering sewer on top of your greasy neck, and it has real impact on the lives and livelihoods of people who want more for their countrymen than a welfare check in every baggie of pot. With Code Duello in force, you could be made responsible for your words, or publicly branded for the cowering, jibbering idiot you are, once and for all.
