Many of you may think I am fucking crazy (or just stupid) for saying this, but a positive change that I can think of would be legalizing marijuana around the planet. I don't think that any other singular action would help more people. Getting rid of racism would be nice, but I don't think that will fix anything. People are going to then find new reasons to differentiate themselves from their fellow human beings. Religion has caused more war and strife than anything I can think of, but like racism, I don't think it will fix much of anything in the long run. As long as people have ground to differentiate themselves from one another, I feel there will be a large enough minority of the world population that will form feelings of hostility towards others, and take action through violence. But at least giving people the right to get high if they want to, and ending a large degree of government hypocrisy, will be benefitial for all. Who knows, maybe that will start the ball rolling for positive change enough to make a difference for the human race.
