What's Your Crazy Idea That Might Work!?

[Madara XIII]

Ok Escapists, this is gonna be a fun thread rather than my usual bitching.
Got this idea in Psychology when learning about Pavlov's Theory and The Skinner Box Method.

[HEADING=2]Post your crazy idea that you think would benefit you and/or the world[/HEADING]

I'll go first to give an example. Considering the problems with America's youth, I suggest we make:
[HEADING=1] FOOD ON WHEELS!!![/HEADING]
A tray with wheels designed to make you run for your food and give you the proper workout before eating your meal.
Also the distance you must run will depend on the Fat and Calories of the food which the tray is holding. Once the proper distance has been traveled, only then will you be able to remove the locked lid of your tray to access your Yummies!!

SCIENCE CONQUERS ALL!!!!

However there are quite a few problems....such as running into oncoming traffic, heart attacks, starvation for those unable to keep up with their food.
Thus is why I propose making you chase it on a closed track.....

Carbon taxes. That's all I can think of right now, and it's the world that thinks they're crazy, not me.

Don't certain companies already have to pay a certain amount of money based on their carbon emissions?

Okay, maybe the world doesn't think it's crazy, but Stephen Harper certainly does (I live in Ontario).

It's not rocket science: implement a carbon tax starting at maybe 2% and increasing at something like .5% or 1% per year, with the extra revenue funding R&D in green energy. Fast-forward 30-odd years and we're off fossil fuels entirely. The reason I think it hasn't been done yet is that people just hate taxes or something >_>

The worst thing to ever happen to politics was politics. (feel free to quote me on that ;D)

Internet ID's. Have people get required to obtain one so every time they troll, they get a little stamp on their card.. 5 total stamps makes you suspended from your internet until you take 'civil online' classes. Would make cyberspace a whole lot more peaceful.

.... scary but efficient. Dear God this idea must go public

Nice idea... though that would necessiate the issuing of (official) Internet policing licenses, or similar. *shrug*

Either that, or one fucking high level analytical AI.

Fuck regulating the intertubes, if you want peacefullness move to Norway. The more anonimity the better if you ask me.

Free-Healthcare. That is all.... or is it?

We have that in the UK.

 

[Iron Lightning]

Well, I think that it might be possible to generate motion by using permanent asymmetric magnetic fields to affect no net change in energy when seen across the whole system. My project is more developed than that, of course, but I'm not going to share particulars on a public forum.

y'know what that reminds me of? sheldon's 'strikes' from Big Bang Theory. that worked mostly...

Free-Healthcare. That is all.... or is it?

no, its not all. yay for socialism!
OT: hmm... SELF LUBRICATING ASSES! seriously, shitting would be easier, as would buttsex.

 

[Mrrrgggrlllrrrg]

Take unsuspecting person, strap bomb to them without their knowledge, push them to the zombies, boom, I run off to live another day.

or more practical, make hippies illegal.

or help california break off into the ocean somehow.

I don't know that is all I have in the crazy department.

Scale up and armor the powersuits DARPA has and give em guns, that'd be pretty sweet.

 

[Anarchemitis]

Shading particles with voxel fluids and having the attributes governed by expressions and ramps.
It's all the best parts of particles and fluid dynamics, with double the complexity of one or the other!

 

[BishopofAges]

I think people with amputated limbs should be able to enroll in a program that pays them to test cybernetic limbs and advanced prosthetics.

 

[IndianaJonny]

Make dancing sessions compulsory in schools till the age of 9. Exercising mind and body!

And extend the 'free milk' thing up to age 16. Mmmmmmnmm.

 

[similar.squirrel]

Think Krogan Genophage, but on a smaller scale, and with humans.

 

[El Poncho]

Teach kids to question their superiors motives and not to just do what they say, pretty crazy I know but it will improve society for the better I swear!

A new age of airships. Because airships are awesome, except from when the explode. In that case, just brand them Aperture Airships. Then, when they inevitably burst into flames it'll be slightly less tragic and probably funny in some way.
