I’m responding to Michael Bratslavsky’s post. I think that the killing laws are a bit harsh. Actually, they’re really harsh. I don’t think that your family would deserve to die because of what you did. If you were trying to discourage murder you should have done something else that wouldn’t punish others. Also to Dan Louise I never thought about wasting money which is a flaw in my world.

I think that Michael Bratslavsky's perfect world is a couple thousand miles short from perfect. I don't think the penalties for doing things against the law should be as harsh as death. Especially if someone is killed, I don't think the killer's family should be punished. I think it would be bad enough to have the death penalty for just the killer. I think it is more important to be able to forgive the killer while also sending them to jail. If you were to say that the killer can't kill someone, but you can, that's kind of hypocritical. I also sort of disagree with Jessica B. I think it's a great idea to be environmentally clean and have that system to always be able to figure out if someone is sick or hurt, but i don't think we, the citizens should fully be able to choose the government. I know it's by province, but it kind of sounds like it would just create another civil war. Overall, they both have some great ideas, but there's definitely also some flaws in your perfect world.

First, I am responding to Courtney's blog post because she talked about equality just as much as I did,(boop) but also had much more to benefit her perfect world. Courtney talked also talked about providing shelter for homeless people and shelter for stray animals,(boop) which I didn't think about. Now I am talking about Michael Bratslavsky's blog because he talks about gun ownership and that only licsenced police officers and active veterans should own firearms. Also,(boop) Michael talks about getting "rewarded" with manslaughter if you commit manslaughter, which I thought was a great idea.

I am responding to Micheal`s post. I think that the killing rule for if you kill somebody you will be killed is fine. But the one that says if you kill multiple people your whole family would get killed. What would happen if you only kill 2 people and there is 4 people in your family? I like the fact that the Minimum is 4 years in college because if that is a minimum then more college students would get more of an education. I really did like Micheal`s perfect world. I think his world would be more fair than others.

I'm responding to Peter Hatton's blog post. Ilike your perfect world post but only thing which can turn your a positive world to negative, if technology get very awesome than peoples life can get shorter. If people not gonna work the robots do their job than they get lazier, not gonna work out and don't move from their seat people's blood circulation get passive. And to Shamus I like his idea everyone speak in one language.

I am responding to Rebecca Blumenthal’s post. I totally agree with her about everyone getting the same amount of resources. This is kind of like my idea of everyone getting the same amount of money. Also, Rebecca is so right about how when we get rid of one problem, a new problem will be created and there is no such thing as a perfect world. I also agree that no one would work hard if everyone got the same amount of resources. And the wealthy people do work hard to get to where they are. Even if they won the lottery, they have to work hard not to spend it all quickly and all on one thing, they need to work hard on maintaining the money they earned. And I definitely don’t want the government breathing on my neck for anything. But one thing is for sure: we need to stop hunger, homelessness, and droughts. There are so many huge problems in the world and the government is only fixing the small problems. We need to fix the big problems, then deal with the little ones. That is how we make America great again, Donald Trump.

I am also responding to Ivana Sakota's blog post. I agree with her on all of what she said. I totally agree with her about the crazy weather, and how everyone should be able to go to school.

I am commenting to Nora Prosak's post. I liked it, but I don't think it's good for kids to be around technology at a young age. it wouldn't be good for their eyes. And I don't think popularity matters.

I am first responding to Niyere's post. I completely agree about the homeless having food and shelter. Having them work for free was kind of confusing, then again I don't know if you have to pay to work. Also them being able to get a reasonable pay amount would help tremendously. I would also, no offense, be kind of on the edge about him being the president, he could have said he could change all of these problems with just being an important person in our "world".

My first response is for Michael Bratslavsky. I like the fact that you want everyone to go to school because that creates a better education for all kids, even ones who can’t afford to go to school. I don’t agree with anything else though. For one, if you are trying to stop people from killing other people, then I don’t think it’s a very good idea to kill that person too. Also, if you made all the laws the made all the decisions, then it would be a dictatorship which is exactly the same way the country was run in The Hunger Games, and we all know how that turned out. My second response is for Olivia Nordan. I like the fact that you want to get people off addictions. I see some flaws though. For one, there probably will never be world piece. Also, people may think that you are trying to start a dictatorship if you call the continent after yourself. I don’t think that you should give people second chances on debt because people can learn from there mistakes, if you keep helping them, then they will keep making the same mistakes over and over again and there would really be no point in dept if you helped people get out of it.

I am responding to Peter Hattons post. People might start becoming fat and lazy cause of hoverboards. There will be no economy. Mainly cause we might all be to lazy to do our jobs. Therefor there is no economy and the system will collapse.
