Since I'm no politician I wouldn't be able to run a country very well, so I'd just pass it onto someone I thought was good enough for the job.

However, I'd make it law for anyone supporting the BNP to be turned inside-out if seen in public.

I'm from England, by the way...In case there's any confusion on the subject.

You'd probably do a better job than the ones who are politicians. I mean it's hard to screw things up any more than they have done. ;)

Dutch.

Sadly, the elected leader only leads the legislative force, and he has one vote out of 150. And then the laws would have to go through another 75-votes process. If I could take over the House of Commons and the House of Lords, I'd change the following:
  • *Silly hats are mandatory for all public servants.
    *Abolish Good Friday, Easter, Ascension Day, Pentecost and Christmas as national holidays. Replace them all with Minister-President Days.
    *The Minister-President may select any woman or man to become his sex slave. This is not up for discussion.

On a more serious note, here's what I would really enforce:
  • *Health insurance companies are required to cover all forms of contraception to those under 18 years of age. This includes the morning-after pill.
    *Euthanasia only requires the doctor to judge the prospect of improvement - whether the suffering is unbearable is for the patient to decide.
    *Softdrugs (cannabis and shrooms) are made entirely legal, with an age limit of 16 (like with alcohol and tobacco). Certain borderline softdrugs (LSD and MDMA) are tolerated, but only in established shops and only to adults (18 or up).

In Britain, sort out the fucking benefits system.

I know people who's parents claim £4000 a week in benefits even though they don't need them. The system is too open to abuse.

Reserve benefits for the PROPERLY disabled, no unemployment benefits at all, the unemployment benefits are higher than the minimum wage, what's the point in that?!

I want people to get jobs and actually contribute to society. Also, I would change the immigration laws, so you can only come to Britain if you have a skill that we are short of, something like the system in Australia. Change the NHS so it's similar to what happens in Holland, like pay-as-you-go healthcare.

That's just for starters. I want to stop this stupid housing quota we've got going, a local council should build as many houses as they need for the population of the town, not a prescribed number that'll just sit empty while the economy crashes. Sack all the MPs and biuld the system from the ground up, get rid of the expenses system and give them a decent salary.

Oh God there are so many things I'd change.

The old law was as i believe; all men and boys in Britain must spend an hour every sunday practicing their archery on an archery range.
I thought it was every Tuesday.

Also, a ladder to the Moon.

I'm Romanian. First thing I'd do would be:

1. Fire almost ALL members of the Government to completely remove the Communist mentality from it.. The one which would remain would be the Minstry of Culture, because it has a responsible and intelligent person leading it. Immediately after that, I'd employ people who actually know what the hell they are doing.

2. Immediately try to fix all the crap and debt this country has by investing in the economy, not spending it on paying other debts.

3. Using my one time use of veto, I'd cancel the concession of a portion which is really rich in oil from a foreign company and use it to fuel the country, so that we break free from depending on the Russians for oil.

4. Complete rehash of the education system by the following idea: School should prepare children for the harshness of life.

5. Encarcerate every member of Noua Dreapta and make it illegal (I don't want no fascists in MY country).

6. Legalise gay marriage.

OLd Laws in Britain were written in old french so its possible that theres confusion in translation. I'm about 80% sure it was on a sunday usually after church.

(Then again they probably went to church every day back in the middle ages.)

Theres loads of funny old laws in England One of my favourites was in a shropshire town; it was legal to kill a Welshman in the market place as long as you shot him with a longbow at midday from a church/clock tower in the centre of town.

Now that was way before Political correctness.

(Not that im endorsing this.. i just think its a ridiculous law)

Well, I'd leave it all as is.
Then I would, y'know, actually follow it all.

Also, I'd probably do a massive purge of corruption and idiocy.
Sure, half the country would be out of jobs, but fuck them.
They are idiots and/or selfish twats.
this... but in America.
they'd also lose voting rights.

... What would be the first law that you would create or change?

I think I would pass a law that creates a maximum salary for people who play professional sports. In the UK top of the class professional football (soccer) players can make up to around £75,000/$120,000 a week (David Beckham at one point made £150,000/$240,000 a week).

Although I believe in Capitalism to a certain extent; The idea that someone who effectively gets paid for kicking a ball around gets that kind of money, when those who work to keep the population alive (Doctors and Nurses) are put into debt due to Medical school, and then stuck on a low pay-grade for years is sickening.

EDIT: Please name your Country to avoid confusion about laws.

So what about you fellow Escapists?
But professional sports athletes bring their franchise that much more money. If you go out and get the david beckham of your sport you draw in more fans, you get more talent, and you can sell stuff using his name(jerseys, balls, etc).


First law I would create would be term limits.

Massively increase funding into alternate power research. More wind farms and more support for people wanting to invest in solar panels.

English by the way.

Danish here.
I'd make it illegal for minors to write, record, and distribute music.
I would also legalize euthenazia, of both really old people as well as people who are so retarded or handicapped that they cannot contribute to society in a constructive manner.
I would also have professional athletes recieve the same wage as people who sit behind the registers in supermarkets.
I would seperate the church and government, so that any new born is not automatically a member of the church.
Any immigrant caught in obvious disregard for the law would be sent back where they came from, the least they could do when we take them in is to behave themselves.
I would also increase the penalty for things like abuse of minors, or abuse in general. Murder too. These things would incur a lifetime sentence. And I would increase the duration of life in prison to last untill the prisoner actually dies, instead of it being like 7-9 years or whatever it is.

Tht's it for now I think, oh, i'd legalize marihuana.
