I have great plans for this Earth. Big ideas for the economy, clever schemes for the culture and a bit of advice for a few of the current 'world leaders.'
Fair trade and a balanced form of socialism have always had their appeal. Getting 800 bucks from the gov doesn't sound like such a bad idea (actually, it sounds like an awful idea - but I would accept it regardless). I think everyone should see Turandot and some form of Cirque du Soleil, it will just make the world a better place.
I think world leaders should count to 10 before they make big decisions.
However, these things can all be pushed aside if I can implement this one:
Everybody needs a therapist.
This world has a complete lack of understand, of itself. The general population has no idea what is going on in their own head. There is so much that could be uncovered - and likely helped - by the simple implementation of world-wide counseling.
Many people find this stigmatic. Having a therapist/shrink/psychiatrist/psychologist/counselor means they are crazy or having some to hide. Well, most people do.
Having someone who's sole purpose is to listen to you (and help you if required), with no expectation from their end (except potential payment) is the ultimate release. I don't care how much yoga or cardio you do - if you don't have a therapist you are not healthy. (And not a "friend who is really good at listening either," these people are just out to get you.)
When I rule the world (yes, "when") I will require each individual to have a therapist (and a personal stylist, but that is for a later post).
So, why not vote for me?

May I be your therapist? I plan to be a doctor (of philosophy, but still), so that should count, right?
In this presidential election cycle, I have watched the debates, listened to endless amounts of news, and read countless articles, and this is the most helpful and healthful idea I've heard yet.
I agree that everyone needs a therapist...every body needs a mental health check up every once in a while...even a therapist!
strangely, i might vote for you. the real question is (from a poor grad student)...will you pay for my therapist?
Hey, and i might vote for you, too...except I'm not so sure on your support for Hillary or Obama.
I have seen both Turandot and Cirque du Soleil. It's true what you say, I'm a much better person now than I ever was.
