What If

Thinking about a few "What if"s:

What if indisputable evidence was found that Saddam had all sorts of WMD in Iraq?

What if that evidence showed that those weapons were in the hands of Iran's Dictator/President?

What if evidence of persecution of Christians in America was made public, such as the girl in Nevada who had her microphone turned off by administrators during her speech because she dared to suggest that her faith was an important part of her experience?

What if studies were publicized that strongly suggested homosexuality was not a natural preference, but was actually due to childhood abuse and disfunctional home environments?

What if every pregnant woman was given an ultrasound that showed her the growing child within before making an abortion decision?

What if the epidemic of STD's was made public and the truth simply stated that the only way to stop it was lifelong fidelity to a single mate?

What if everybody understood that a plurality of their political leaders were beholden to those who pay to keep them in office, not the people who voted for them?

What if every tax we pay was billed separately with everything we buy, and all of our income taxes were billed every month by the federal and state governments so that we had to write a check?

What if a law was passed that no government- federal, state, or local - may exempt or reduce taxes of any sort for any individual or corporation?

What if everyone no longer had any health insurance and had to pay for their health care out of their own personal funds?

What if government-run social programs were required to spend no more than 10% of their budget on administration?

What if companies could not fire or lay off anyone without paying severance based on years of service, especially if the purpose of the layoff is to replace them with illegal (or legal) immigrants who will work for less?

What if the people, through a plurality referendum, could recall their elected officials with a new election before their term ended?

What if there was a "Neither" option on the ballot, and when "Neither" gets the highest number of votes, both candidates are thrown out and new ones must campaign for the office?

Would these things change people's minds? Would they change people's behavior?

Would they make this a better country? A better world?
