1. Walmart is open 24 hours— no one needs anything that Walmart sells at 3AM— let the employees sleep. In fact, close everything at 8pm, and on all major holidays.
2. The middle class never gets a break. As such, I propose a four day work week, and fully funded college educations for all.
3. Jury duty is a big bummer. Daily door prizes will be awarded: big screen tv’s, weekend getaways, etc.
4. Bring back debtors prison. Let’s have some consequences for not paying your mortgage, rather than three years free rent while your neighbors foot your property tax bill.
5. I will remove all red light cameras.
6. Anyone found to be abusing government programs will be put to work on all major holidays with no holiday pay.
7. There will be no teenagers. Twelve year olds will turn twenty two on their subsequent birthdays.
8. All dogs will be puppies. Forever.
9. All food will be cake. Chocolate.
10. Slow drivers who clog the fast lane will man the maiden voyage to Mars.

“6. Anyone found to be abusing government programs will be put to work on all major holidays with no holiday pay.” Where will they work, Lydia? Haven’t you closed everything down for the holidays?? Sorry to be a rabblerouser. I actually loved your post!!!

They will work in hospitals. Even the Queen can’t close those. 😉
Will the Queen make certain we have actual, affordable health care? 🙂
No one will need health care. Chocolate cake is a miracle cure all.
Oh you members of the royal family have an answer for everything! I think you should make them babysit for moms in need of a day off!
Haha. Though I’ve a feeling that debtors’ prison will, essentially, be the end of the populace as we know it. Everyone I know, and everyone he or she knows, is in debt, some way, somehow.
I must admit I’m far from debt free, but I am making an effort to pay my bills.
Door prizes for jury duty, now that’s something I could live with!
