BAHAHAHA "Useless as an ashtray on a motorcycle" !LOLZ 🤣😂 Lots of damn good laughs in here!
If I had the power to change any laws I wanted? ANY? Whew.
It's hard because even our best intentions can cause terrible harm.
Plenty of people agree with my gripes... When I make it illegal to monetize prisons or mark up life saving drugs beyond a few percent, some people would run out into the streets to cheer for me... and then maybe the drugs would become unavailable and people would die, or there would be riots from Americans who LOVE prisons! (I wish this was totally comedy, it's a thing.)
Who knows man. I'd still go for it, but I'm not sure what I would achieve in the end 😅. There is only one sure fire way to thwart good intentions, and it's to mix in human nature 😂 !LUV !PIZZA

Good point well made caller!! Ya, I can totally appreciate that, but the two that you highlight are excellent ones in my opinion and I would definitely get behind both, especially the not monetising the Prison system one. The drugs one is a little more complex though, as these multinational spend millions or in some cases billions on the R&D that goes into making a viable drug and often times there are failures that cost millions and lead to nothing in the end. I think countries should do their bit in that case though and subsidise the drug for their people. We are lucky that this happens in Ireland for lots of drugs and there is also a Drug Payment scheme where the max monthly payment is €80, although not every drug (particularly crazy expensive ones) are on it.
Thanks for the great engagement though, I'd vote you in @grindan!
