Below are some suggestions for lawmakers and judges to bring about a more just country:
Intolerance-Justice should be based on each case and circumstance involving current law and precedent. The idiotic case of six-year-old Zachary Christie is akin to the type of lack of foresight that has parents throughout the land scratching their heads. Zachary had NO CLUE he was committing a crime with a nonflexible sentence of 45 days in a reform school. His crime? As a proud new Cub Scout, he brought a multifaceted eating and tool utensil to his school to show his little friends. Conclusion? When youre out of school its much easier to make ridiculous rules you would have never tolerated or obeyed when YOU were young and vulnerable.
Tort reform-Im not just talking medical malpractice reform, but the farce the legal profession has played out for the last century by lining their pockets with phony and fraudulent suits should outrage everyone. Lawyers who knowingly represent frauds should be punished, fined, suspended and disbarred for continued abuse. Literally $trillions could be saved from bankrupted businesses, prices passed on to consumers, increased insurance policies, unemployment costs and defensive overkill. Also, real cases could be heard in a timely manner without the rubbish that currently clogs the system.

Well, I like the solution of abandoning the paper-dollar and using gold/silver coinage.
