If you had a one day chance to become president of your country, what would you do first?

Question

Telekinetic-Potato · Accepted Answer

I would enact federal laws on police reform. Many would be targeted at ensuring they're not held accountable for letting people go in most cases and regaining public trust in them.

But then, I'd have various statues of me placed randomly through the country, and they'd make loud noises randomly... Like sometimes at 3 am. Loud enough to ruin a dinner if you were less than 200 feet away. And sometimes, the heads would move slightly or platly the national anthem.

I'd have Facebook, Google, sued for being monopolies. And basically strong arm them into proliferateing more money into the economy. If they're smart enough to skip out on taxes, they can help figure out how to fix the economy and regain the middle class in the country they're based out of that also nurtured them so much.

But then, I would have police cars come with clown faces on the back door so when people get arrested and they're being walked up to the car, one of the last things they see is basically their reflection with clown hair and stuff. And then it would play carnival music on the way to jail.

I think I'd also pass legislation about owning companies that help your business but don't help other businesses (Amazon shouldn't be able to buy MGM and then keep all their assets to themselves in an overly competitive nature)

Fix Healthcare while I'm at it. I would start a government owned Pharmaceutical company with the sole intention of manufacturing and selling high quality drugs for hilariously low prices. Like low enough to make the evil pharma companies cry.

Also, schools would be completely redone from thr ground up. Our education system is trash. Probably do a federally required thing to get all the schools on the same page and then slowly allow them to take things their own way again.

And then to top it all off I would make every politician live stream their entire day and the only time they can have privacy is turn off the audio for no more than 5 minutes at a time.

1: abolish income tax for everyone

2: abolish the ATF

3: Full citizenship rights for American Samoa and Puerto Rico including representation in Congress.

4: withdraw all American troops from the Middle East and Europe

5: Militarize the southern border to stop ALL cartel and gang activity spilling over.

6: Tap into the shale oil deposites throughout North America and put OPEC out of business.

7: undercover and unmarked police vehicles are either abolished or not allowed to conduct traditional patrols and are only to be used for high level investigations. Not against normal citizens

8: any product made in a country ruled by a dictatorship *cough CHINA cough cough* will be tariffed into oblivion. While domestically made products will be tax-free.

9: anyone not doing at least the speed limit at the end of the on-ramp to the highway will have their license revoked.

10: foreign aid shall be illegal and treasonous unless something of equal or greater value is aquired in exchange.

The first thing would be to secure the US to make sure Americans are safe from outside threats. I think the current administration trusts too much in other countries, especially "allies", and has only worsen the situation with immigration and the border.

Another thing would be to go after corporations that expand outside of the US, mostly since we need those jobs INSIDE of the country and not outsourced elsewhere. Especially now that the economy is so bad. There are people struggling with paying their bills in the world's wealthiest country. I think eliminating the federal reserve would help the economy as well but that would be much harder and difficult.

Lastly, the United States has become a drearily unmotivated. I think this is the biggest and most dangerous issue the country is facing yet isn't addressed much or at all. Many people dont think much of the country and aren't motivated to make it better, to strive higher. I think this will have a devastating consequence for the country if it doesn't kill it first.

I would explain further and add more but than it might as well be a Mytake. I'm sorry for the long comment. Thank you.

First, I will focus on improving our economic growth.

Second, I will work on funding the healthcare system and build hospitals.

Third, I will increase the minimum wage salary and give job opportunities for everyone. Everyone who has enough skills for the job will be hired, without discriminating their age and educational background.

Fourth, I will sign on Free Education and give out scholarships. Every kid deserves to have an education and achieve their dreams.

This is a really good question.. ☺️

BlueScorpio · Answer

I would force every single billionaire company and person in America to help with our country's debt, housing crisis, people who are headed towards homelessness/poverty from being on the street, medical and food needs, pay higher taxes so every working person can get break/ pau cheaper taxes etc. They will also have to start paying the working class higher than what they are doing now. Once our country and our people start doing better. Landlords would be put on a limits to how much they can charge, there would be no such thing as as 1k to 5k in rent for everyday working American. Then they can spread their wealth and resources to help others in need around the world. Hoarding wealth and being greedy is why a lot people are suffering for no reason.

Also the work week would be cut down so people can have more time with their families and to recover their mental health.

tfan1 · Answer

*rubs hands* Here we go. As President I would have all demonic rats including their lawyers who hate this country, arrested. Including antifa and blm gangs - All would be put on trial and it would be televised.

biden, pelosi, oBlahma, schummer, the clintons, aoc, the evil party of four demonic rat middle eastern women who cheated to be in power, would immediately be found of treason and the electric chair would fry them all. No waiting for stupid long lengths of time - no life sentences. Before the end of the day when I would lose power I would make an impossible to beat loophole that the people have the power of the country - not the government. The government works for us not vice versa and not against us. At long last the swamp would be drained. My last action of power would be to give the Presidency back to the true President of the United States of America 🇺🇸 President Donald J Trump!!!

Trump 2024!! 🙏🇺🇸❤️👍😃

Attempt to end lobbying by forcing people to either choose business or politics, you can't do both, you can't recieve gifts or money of any kind at any point, there will be no campaign donations, instead a system of advertising will be provided on an equal basis by the state.

Those found guilty of corrupting the system will face the stripping of all of their wealth and a lifetime in prison.

I would also throw in proportional representation and perhaps a return to the gold standard?

If there is any time left after that I would add a requirement for large companies operating or selling goods in the UK to be listed on the stock market (so that people can buy into and own a part of these companies) and look into a tax on currency transactions.

Oh and nationalise core sectors like utilities, rail transport and Royal mail.

xyzfdg · Answer

Bring focus back in education to character, morals, virtues instead of only measuring academic success on intellect (math, science, language, etc.)... basically try to create functional human beings, who know how to communicate & resolve issues in any relationship, rather than the incompetence we have today of people behaving exactly 4-year-old children, throwing tantrums because people won't act according to their narcissistic beliefs, wants, and desires, not because they're true narcissists, because nobody ever gave them proper education on civility, diplomacy, or respect.

Agape93 · Answer

Discreetly talk to influential members of antifa and proud boys to start getting violent nation wide, promising them I'll use the chaos to enact policies they want. Once they are violent, enact martial law. Have the national guard detain SCOTUS as traitors, and put down the violent folks with force. Before my day is out, have all traitors and domestic terrorists in federal custody executed for treason.

Well If its something grand, extravagant it shouldn't be the first thing done, too many presidents found out the hard way.

Unite the world against evil so that its no longer people against one another but the people united against the shadow brokers.

Agent_Elflord · Answer

Toss out the 1934 National Firearms Act, 1968 Gun Control Act, and the 1986 Machine gun ban. Mk. 19 and 20mm Vulcan squirrel hunting for the rural folks!🥳 and maybe use taxpayer money to buy that complete Panther tank that that German Pensioner had hidden in his basement and display it in the Capitol Rotunda (let’s be honest, the money was gonna be used on bullshit programs anyway.🤷🏻‍♂️)

Surely · Answer

If you mean president for a day!

Too many things to list. Too many people to fire and to lock up. Finish the wall. Execute drug smugglers. Tell the oil companies to "Drill baby Drill!" Give incentives to develop alternate forms of energy, but using common sense in doing so! Can't be done over night! Refill the strategic oil reserves. Refund the police. More funding to develop even a stronger military!

That would be before breakfast!

BJP21 · Answer

Fire every single person in congress and the senate if they have been benefiting themselves from elitists or on any financial interests in corporate businesses such as fossil fuels, land, stock... etc. That is a conflict of democracy.

Nothing much honestly. Here in India, the President doesn't have much political power. The president mainly acts as the Head of the army and signs any bills that the Parliament passes to make it a law. So probably not do much.
