Somehow, you’ve ended up with 100% public support. You hold so much power that you can even change the constitution of your country.
You can shape it into anything you want.
What are some of the major decisions you would implement? What would the country look like after you are gone from power?
You were given an unlimited power and full support of the people to lead your country. What do you do?

Free health care. 4 day work week.
The US most likely will not let you, and you will get bombed by America.
Brother, first thing first, punish the corrupt politicians and military officials. Second, reform the education. Third, reform energy management. Fourth, industrialise existing sectors even further but take environment as consideration. As for how, I believe there are many capable professionals who can materialise the idea. 👍🏿
Tax the rich properly
Better paternity pay and increase duration for both parents,
Build a fuckload of state housing
Require corporations to clean up their own environmental messes (so sick of watching them externalise the costs)
Reform how politics is funded –
briberylobbying should be heavily regulatedMassive infrastructure improvements/harden it for climate change.
Immediately resign – no man/woman should have that much power.
I’ll go first
I would imprison most of the leadership from the last 20 years.
Dismantle the current liberal democratic system and implement a form of meritocracy where people can only elect ministers of their own profession. And only those ministers would be able to elect the president.
Invest heavily into Air defense systems and cover the
country in bunkers and tunnels.
Bring back conscription for the army.
Invest in domestic industry and agriculture, with the goal of preventing foreign companies from extracting resources and making a profit.
Implement decisions which would promote self reliance
And make a fast push for the creation of a nuclear weapon
Please no. I would be in one of the most fucked position in the World.
Stop war, animal cruelty, and mankind‘s cruelty to itself
Heavy punishment for corruption. Complete voting reform. Empower localities again. Secure means of food production. Protect natural environmental and rivers etc.
Any kind of enlightened dictator fantasy conveniently forgets that you can do anything you want, but you can’t do everything. To do everything, you need enlightened civil servants, a while hierarchy of them.
Reality is that you’ll probably end up with a situation like North Korea.
Basic UBI, universal healthcare and secondary education, gender neutral rape, DV, and SA laws and support services enshrined into law, gender-neutral draft/conscription, reallocation of large portions of military budget and resources to domestic development like public works and job programs including a “swords to plowshares” imitative to use military personnel for domestic enrichment, and full nationalization of key industries.
And that’s just the “first 100 days.”
Sell as much government property as I can to whoever can buy fast, steal the profits and run away to UAE or some other offshore.
>What would the country look like after you are gone from power?
I don’t care.
Before anyone waves a magic and and gives the fantasticrats in this thread power, please just let me know which country in case I need to leave.
Maybe they’ll grant me a unicorn to ride across the rainbow to the impure but liveable neighbouring state.
Restore the Roman Empire!
I would require EVERY politician to wear a camera on them 24/7. I would raise every politician’s salary to $500k, but every politician would be required to take random drug tests. If a politician goes to the bathroom, camera records, politician talks to “big oil/pharma/agriculture/etc., camera records. Politician talks to their stock broker about plans to buy up stock in _ because of ___ that they found out about, camera records. National security items are handled by other entities but politicians are allowed to publicly scrutinize these entities.
If a person wants to carry out the people’s work then they need to be monitored 24/7. We’ve reached a point in history where they can no longer be trusted. If i had a device that was as corrupt as our politicians, why wouldn’t I monitor it diligently to find out where the corruption lies? They are busy fattening their wallets, their own interests, and the interests of the people that have corrupted them. It’s time to shine a light on their corruption. I figure if they want a public life of serving the public, then we need FULL access. This should drive away the corrupt and keep the weak and modest out of public service. If you serve the public, your modesty and privacy are forfeit, that is the price of your power.
Making owning more than 1 house illegal
Not all at once, but just off the top of my head:
Hopefully it will be a more egalitarian country with decent housing and much lower wealth inequality and less corruption.
