My answer to these is always the same. Carve my initials into the moon, using either a giant laser or sending labourers up there to do it.
Really it's the only logical thing to do. It will create jobs and employment, stimulate science and development, and as a result help the economy (as all massive projects do), all the while providing a reminder to everyone IN THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD that I AM THEIR KING.

I'd kill God.

Erase his name from history and burn every piece of religious material. In the beginning there will only be the FLAILING ESCAPIST!

The problem is keeping God dead. You'd have to figure out a way to continuously suppress people's desire to worship the gracious unknown.

Take away from the world the homeless, beneficiary abusers and any like that. To death of course.
Then from there take steps to making the honest people out of debt, by them working for it of course.
Also spend more into science, research and helping the economy blah blah blah.

Global limit of 4 children per household
No healthcare once past the age of 70 unless otherwise necessary
Global fuels will be a minimum of 100RON without lead, to promote increased compression levels with direct injection for engines, reducing emissions and fuel use, while increasing power, without stupid ridiculous laws/limits being put into place.
Funding back into NASA and a small grant for other space agencies or companies dealing in space exploration, $750mil reward for the first person to build a structure on the Moon that lasts over 5 years, $2.5bil to the first person to build a structure on mars to last over 3 years.
Promote nuclear energy all around the world, bonuses to electricity companies producing and running nuclear power plants.
Increase global corn production
Ban some of Mosantos practices and force them to halve the cost of their products.

Allow countries to stay independent and retain the majority of their laws, remove a few leaders and put new ones in their place (North Korea springs to mind as a major one), nerf chinas growth a little bit.

Promote Carbon Fibers to become more common in more products to replace plastics, force large soft drink companies to use Glass bottles again by putting a 5% tax on every plastic bottle product they sell, while not allowing them to pass the tax onto consumers.
Force India to conform to at least Euro 3 emissions by 2016, tax the shit out of their large companies that produce too much crap into the air and fully fund nuclear power.

Increase plantation of trees and other plants around the world by paying small companies to do so.
Introduce fresh water restrictions globally and increase money to desalination research.
Force Diamond mines to reduce the cost of their gems by 1/2 to promote better use of them (one of the hardest naturally forming things in the world shouldn't be reduced to being nothing but fucking jewelry. Heat Sinks being one good use.)
Legalize weed in most places, taxed fairly heavily and controlled to such a point that only most 'medium' strains are kept.
Sensible gun laws around the world - no rifle over .308 and no handgun over 9mm, no armor piercing rounds to civilians.


And that's my contribution to the species. Thank me in 100 years when our lives of luxury are maintained instead of being filled with war and starvation.
Thank me when our first humans send back word from the Moon that the base is operating fine.
Thank me when we start seriously considering terraforming mars.

Ban genetic modification/selection before birth.



Also, i would live in a heavily fortified castle type deal and to have an audience with me, you must not have any weapons, pass a basic intelligence test, have a good reason for seeing me and be able to sing along - every word - to:

If you complete those requirements, you may talk to me. Irrelevant of who you are or how much money you have.
Although it is $100 to see me. I'll use that money for good causes.
You may try once a month and i do this 4 or 5 days a week.

Dismantle the British tabloids, give the Brit's about five years to get all the crap they've been absorbing over the years out of their heads (they can watch the BBC in the meantime) and then introduce three main newspapers- a right wing one, a centrist one, and a left wing one. Give financial backing where relevant to ensure fair distribution.

If that works i may try doing the same with American news channels...

Oh, and start my own religion. Take over all the worlds education systems and indoctrinate the children, and i'll have fun inventing deities and religious obligations people have to follow.

Throw away the cars and the bars and the wars. Dunno about seducing the OP, though.

I will order killed or imprisoned many people who are powerful and ideologically opposed to the changes I will implement. It is unfortunate and I lament it but it would have to be done. History has shown us, it's me or them. Then I will shut down all the 24 hour "news" networks. That is first and foremost. After that, stock exchanges are shut down. They encourage unending growth, ludicrous concentration of wealth and promote the existence of lobbyists who's interest it is to protect that growth and wealth, which in turn undermine legislation for the public good. Nothing in nature grows forever, save cancers, and they prove that such growth is self destructive. Drug manufacturers face serious oversight and price controls. Food is distributed where needed, medicine provided for all, clean energy projects begun en mass. environmental protections implemented, public works projects are begun to bring water to parched regions ranging from desalinization plants to canals that stretch thousands of miles through the deserts from the sea and work is begun on expansion into space. Weapons are still researched. Just in case something comes up. Other than that it's business as usual.

Bring back MegasXLR

Then set up a coliseum in which all WBC members fight to the death against tigers. Also, they are unarmed
