Here r some of mine:
1. Excellent health n strength continuing until I change my mind.
2. That l 'aissez faire free enterprize and libertarian
Individualism will prevail
in both economics and politics thru out the Earth,
until I change my mind:
( thus ending any and all control,
licensing or registration of guns or ammunition,
by any government in the world, including any local government,
with the possible exception that local governments have juris-
diction requiring all citizens who are physically able to carry a gun
be required to do so, and that firearms training for accuracy
and safety, be rendered in all public schools ).
3. That I shud acquire an extra $800, 000, 000, 000 in gold n silver net, net, net
after any taxes and any other expenses have been fully paid.
4. That I get enduring good looks; ( I never liked my looks ).
5. That funding for the Space Program is multipled by 500.
6. That discriminatory taxation is ended,
with all government funding coming from sales taxes,
so that everyone, rich, middle class or poor will pay the same rate.
7. That violent, recidivistic criminals be BANISHED
from the North American Continent, with sneaking back in
being prohibited on pain of death.
8. That use of non-fonetic English spelling is abandoned
in favor of foneticly correct spelling. The fonetic standard
will be English as spoken by Tom Brokaw.

This one wish would reuce all your other wishes to ashes.

Would you prefer Marvin Bush?
I assume these don't have to be realistic wishes as they're being granted by a generous genie so-
1) that the basic premise of life as it exists in the world today (that people are born into certain circumstances, live a finite number of years, all the time knowing they are going to die, and then do essentially disappear to who knows where) would be changed. I don't like it- and I think it encourages selfishness and self-indulgent behavior which in turn leads to war, fear, depression, frustration and stagnation of potential, which leads to a struggle for power, control, and abuse, etc., which leads to war, fear, depression, frustration and stagnation of potential....
2) that people could be born inherently happy, and be able to stay that way and access that pure happiness that most babies possess. I think if people in general were just happier, that would translate in a much less stressful world for everybody.
3) I would wish that every child could be born wanted and loved, and was treated accordingly by those who might enter his or her orbit and impact him or her in any way. I think this one change would alleviate a lot of unhappiness and stress in the world, as people age and progress through it.
4) Simplicity. I think everything's gotten too complicated.
I would wish for Aiden to get her wishes and for everyone else to get theirs with the exception of Sturgis' first wish.
Quote:would be for all the children of the world to get together and sing,
Yea... I've worked in a toystore. Your wish sounds fun, but only until about 5 pm that day, and then you'll use your second wish to get them to shut up before your head explodes.
