The First 10 Things I will do when I am Mayor of Baltimore.

Nov 20, 2006 19:02

1. Plan and implement a peaceful takeover of Baltimore County so that the city actually has some tax revenue.

2. Create a functional public transportation system run entirely on bio-fuels, including trains, metro, lightrail, and busses that run frequently and reliably 24 hours a day from places where people are to places they want to go, with ample parking at all stations.

3. Bomb North Avenue and start the public school system over from scratch. All public schools will be charter schools where students are treated like students, not budding criminals. All middle school curriculums will include comprehensive scientific sexual education designed to educate rather than terrify. There will be no mandatory benchmark tests for these schools, but if someone even suggests not teaching evolution, they will be shot.

4. Fully fund drug treatment centers.

5. Decriminalize drugs.

6. House, feed, and employ the homeless.

7. Demolish all abandoned buildings and create public parks and community gardens.

8. Replace all outdated sewage and water-treatment infrastructure.

9. Ban smoking in all buildings; outlaw smoking in the proximity of children or the elderly.

10. Halt suburban sprawl by outlawing further horizontal development.
