What 3 major things would you change, if you could, about America ?

11. Only 3 things?

1. I would increase involvement and influence in politics at the local and state levels. I would strive for a political system like Switzerland, where the executive is rotated between regional leaders. This would allow for more reactive and responsible politics. People in New York and California can have strong democratic policies, while South Carolina can have their right-wing policies.

2. I would eliminate all private financing of elections. Everyone running for office should be on an equal playing field. If candidates feel they need to raise more money, thats fine. However, they have to split that with ALL candidates on the ballot.

3. (I have no idea how this would be realistically accomplished) I would eliminate the idea of "American exceptionalism." I feel like a lot of people don't care enough about policy because they think "we are America, we will be okay. We are special." This is why so many people are fine with our massive debt, because they think that America is different from Greece, Ireland or Japan. We need to realize that we can fall from grace if we don't enact more common sense policy.

I could go on and on, but I think these would be very important to helping get our country back on path.
