Do it like Austria:

- Free healthcare and education for everyone.
- No nuclear enerygy. Rely on renewable recources (40% of Energy produced in Austria comes from rivers).
- Greatly reduce the military personnel (Protect your own country, but get out of the rest of the world).
- Guns are only avialable to people with special license.
- Become military neutral. (Leave the NATO) ( You would save BILLIONS yearly that way)

Not viable for much larger and more geographically varied countries with larger populations.

Actually, Genghis its 340 million, and Austrias is 8 million.

Also, Koala, if you think the cost of storing nuclear waste is high.... you seriously suggested a moon colony. Talk about expensive.

Middle East
-Try to resolve Palestine issue peaceably.
-Work with the region to take down ISIL.
-negotiate methods to extract unnecessary military personnel and military bases.

Russia
-Possibly lift sanctions, but it is hard to predict what would happen by 2018/19.

China
-Continue trade and investment.

NATO
-Maintain NATO but decrease intervention.

I agree with these points of your reform plan, however I reject your positions on
Social and Economic matteers.

And I am sceptical about the first part of your reform plan.

Did you miss something in my post? Oh yes, you missed "future". Helium 3 is in the roadmap of China planning to land before 2030 on the moon and open a mine to extract it.

As for nuclear energy it is not a renewable energy it will eventually be completely exploited, and as I told you it generates a huge waste of radioactive materials that can't be destroyed at all, and yes it also generates very high costs, that's why renewable energies are in the long term more profitable and more importantly will not destroy the environment.

Nobody ever said nuclear energy was a long-term solution, but it's better than our current strategy.

Nuclear should be used as a transition power source until everyone is ready to go totally green. The alternative is to keep building more coal plants while we wait...

No, It's on the list of "Things we want but aren't really f***ing feasible at this time."

Google, "Chinese economic problems."

And in all seriousness, predictions for space are rarely accurate. In the 60s, there were predictions space travel would be almost normal by now.

Do you get what roadmap means? It is planned but it will not necessarily end up this way. Nevertheless China will be the most serious pretender for missions to the moon with a manned landing in the next decades, like it or not.

It's not on the immediate roadmap...everyone gets what it means now, tsh. Also, China has no economic problems to speak of, it's the most powerful country, today.

But can you link article for how this He-3 power would work? Why specifically He-3 is needed? How is it supposed to be better than nuclear power? It's a noble gas, not good for reactions. Hydrogen I would think is better.

I like 2 out of the 5.

I don't get #4. What are these special licenses? How tough are they to get and is everyone in Austria eligible to get one or is there a quote on the number? Also are all guns allowed to these people with special licenses? Just curious :)

In most the EU and other sites, how it works is, if they see anyone with a gun, they can ask to see your license, to make sure you bought the gun legally. I think you'd actually like this system better, since the EU has a far lower murder rate than America, despite like living settings, and also there's more freedom on what kinds of guns you can get (as I understand, in America, for example, you can't have automatic guns - well, in the EU, you can.). Also, you get a license by basically having a non-violent criminal record and a pyschologic evaluation to make sure you're not mad.

- Guns are only avialable to people with special license.

Won't reduce gun deaths, crime and won't reduce the availability of guns by much. It may radicalize a small percentage of the population (let's say 1%) and that would be way too much trouble for something that won't work.

It would, as anyone with a gun could be asked (by an armed policeman) to show a license or get their gun taken away from them, against noone asking them, noone taking away illegally gotten guns. The availability of guns, well, in America, that's a bigger problem than in Austria. But anyone who got a gun, with any "available" way can be checked if they got it in a right way.

It may radicalize a small percentage of the population (let's say 1%) and that would be way too much trouble for something that won't work.


How's that? Radicalisation?

It is illegal for the police to just check someone's house or person for something without a warrant. By the time it takes for a warrant the person could easily hide his gun or give it to a friend for safe keeping. There are also many who simply wouldn't tell police or anyone they have a gun and keep it secret, it's not like the police will just randomly get a warrant for someone who doesn't even give suspicion.

It will radicalize people who think it is their obligation to defend their rights. 1% of the population, ps, is 3 million. That would be a huge chunk of people willing to kill, bomb and attack the government.
