  • To Save The World (Vol. 1)

    So, all in all, I have my life pretty well sorted out the way I like it.  Good job, I get benefits, good people around.  Adequate monetary supply.  Playstation 3.  Big nice TV.  And NFL football is back.  So, everything for me seems to be bungled in nicely.

    Now, I think it's time I concentrate my skill of getting things made way better on the world.  I'll try to peruse the news, or my own mind, and come up with a subject, and then tell how it can be made way better.  Some of the solutions may be simple and only involve a few innocent deaths.  Some others, well, they might get nasty.

    Volume 1:  Children

    There are a lot of problems around that have something to do with children.  I mean, I agree, children are our future.  I can imagine some scenario where I'm the 65 year-old-goon stumbling around the office with a cup of coffee not knowing what the hell is going on, and then someone else will be the 24 year old looking on in shock.  That's the way of the world.  It's cyclical. 

    But, a lot of children don't even get the chance to go to a prestigious college and earn a difficult engineering degree and then acquire a job in a cubicle (with benefits).  But, as everyone knows, the world needs ditchdiggers too.

    But what the world doesn't need is 1-legged homeless guys on the side of the road.  They serve no purpose other than making everyone sad and making me pretend I'm looking at my cell phone for the duration of the red light.  But, think about it, these tramps were once kids.  Probably with 2 legs. Somewhere, something went wrong.  But, I have neither the time nor the resources to trace the roots of every hobos demise.  But, I can guess, that more often than not, it goes back to their upbringing.  Maybe their mom and dad were not around alot, so little Billy started experimenting in the kitchen sink and wa-la : addicted to methamphetamine.  Had his parents been more caring and interested in his life, Billy might have thrown that winning touchdown pass for the High School Team, but no, instead Billy was getting high in the barn and getting his leg caught in a corn-husking machine.

    Another issue that comes up related to kids is abortion.  Some are pro-Choice, some are pro-Life, some more are pro-Mandatory-Abortion.  You know, to each his own.  It's a battle that's raged for decades and hits on many moral and religious fronts as well.

    Maybe, a chick gets an abortion and the aborted baby would have gone on to become someone awesome like Brad Pitt.  Or maybe the aborted baby would have ended up being the 1-legged guy on the side of the road with a nasty sign and a scraggly beard.  We can never be sure.

    But, there are some things in society we are sure about.  When you go to school, you have to learn and take tests.  If you graduate HS, we're sure you're up to snuff to atleast do a few jobs.  If you get a car and learn to drive and learn the rules and past the test, you've earned the right to drive a car.

    But, one thing we don't test for is if you're ready to have a kid.  And that's a problem.

    My solution:  Apply to have a baby:  As every women is born, she is given some sort of injection or something making it so she can't have  kids.  Then one day when you prove that you can provide a decent good family for a kid, we give you the antidote, and you can get ahead and have a kid.  It's a win-win.  No abortions this way.  Less bums.  More chance of success for kids. 

    It's not so hard, just prove you can provide a job and home and stuff the kid needs to be up to snuff and ready to tackle kindergarten when that comes around. 

    Sometimes a mom would end up having some absurd amount of kids like 9 so there's no way she can support them all.  Well, she will have to qualify for the antidote and then have the first kid, but then she's be reinjected and she's have to prove for each future kid that she can indeed support those as well. 

    Having more kids will be just like going to apply for a homeowner's lone.  You gotta prove you have the assets and that you can handle up on the parenting responsibilities, both financial and otherwise. Then, you can get the antidote, have the kid. Enjoy life knowing you've planned it and can deal with it.

    The only loser here is anyone who wants to have kids in conditions that are unfavorable for those kids to succeed.  Or people who want to have a lot of kids so they can get more free welfare money.  The welfare money can be reallocated to be used on school programs.  Keeping the money in hands that are more capable of handing it and reallocating it with the goal of helping the next generation of children. 

    No eugenics here.  Not telling people they can't do something.  Just kind of redefining childbirth from a human right to a sort-of privilege.  And the kids win with this every time.
