Seriously, I'd add a 2 second delay at red lights before they turn green. I've seen 2 accidents from drivers trying to burn yellow lights that go red and I don't want to see anymore.
I'd also make it mandatory that kids play dodgeball in gym class.

No kidding but I wouldn't want to go to far back. That's asking for trouble.
Strange world we live in. I heard a commercial for an attorney's office for personal injury. One of the things mentioned is essentially sueing (sp?) someone for a faulty sidewalk. Can you imagine tripping on a crack b/c you weren't looking and sueing someone for it. Crazy.

I think the country is safe attack wise. I would take the pointless stuff out. Get rid of illegal immagrants as they cause alot of deaths, accidents, rapes, and sexual offenders. I would also get the burglary rate down.

Some things I've been thinking about lately:
San Francisco to ban plastic grocery bags
I went online and ordered a bunch of recycled cloth bags for grocery shopping. I'd like to mention carrying five full cloth bags is heck of a lot easier on your hands/arms than carrying five full plastic bags -- I hate making second trips for groceries, so I always end up having my circulation cut off by the pastic.
Also:
http://www.hemp.com/
"Industrial hemp is an incredible resource. Hemp is harvested for its fibers for hemp clothing and seeds for hemp oil. With a relatively short growth cycle of 100-120 days, it is an efficient and economical crop for farmers to grow, however, industrial hemp cannot be commercially grown in the United States because it is erroneously confounded with marijuana. In fact, industrial hemp and marijuana are different breeds of Cannabis sativa. Smoking large amounts of hemp flowers can produce a headache but not a high!"
I would love to see the ban on industrial hemp lifted, as well as a ban put on plastic grocery bags. I think both of these small changes would most definitely make this country better.
