Lawn care
I want to be able to cut my lawn without a motor (because gasoline and lithium batteries both have their problems). I’m thinking of getting a scythe. I think it'd be cool to be that guy with the scythe. Dope idea?

Mental health services need to be improved, both in the services they can offer and their response time. Especially the response time.

Climate change strategy
Atmospheric geoengineering, creating artificial clouds or otherwise altering the properties of the sky and air, is a technology that comes with a lot of risks and whose use should be avoided. But, we should still research it anyway, because if we wind up needing it, it could be an emergency.

We need a Speaker of the House. Congress needs to be sequestered under the dome. No cell phones, no media contact., till they do their job. If it's done to elect the pope, it should be done for this and also for getting a budget passed. This is a disgrace.

There should be a universal basic income (UBI) where all citizens should be given enough money to raise them above the poverty line each month, enough to pay bills and eat. They can spend it on whatever they wish. You can also supplement it by working at a job.

Checks on the Supreme Court
There needs to be a voting-based check on the power of the Supreme Court. They’re currently totally unaccountable dictators, and all branches of our government need to be under the ultimate control of the voters. We can't pass a constitutional amendment every single time they rule something insane.

Maybe killing or torturing people is bad regardless of who it is? No more 'but they deserved it!', that just draws a line. What happens when that line moves until you're back to killing civilians you see as soldiers and nothing else?
