Serious question: What do you suggest we change?

[/ QUOTE ]

Much.

Here's two things.

1) Prison Reform
I want to see less tough prosecution on non-violent drug dealers or users. Instead, the federal and state prosecutors should be focusing much more heavily on white collar crime. We have huge overcrowding in our prisons and many people are there simply for selling weed or having too much in their possesion. So I also think legalizing weed is a top priority as it will have a chain reaction of depopluting are jails and prisons and would be a big lift to the economy.

2) The second thing is the protection of endangered species and heavy investemnt in alternative energies. Also, a public awareness of global warming and the disatorous domino effect of animal species being gone forever.

These are just two things I want to see change. I think these two things should be obvious serious concerns of every concerned citizen. I'm certainly not the first to point these things out, but it doesn't hurt to repeat them.
