If you could make one thing illegal whIch is currently legal what would it be?

In Germany there are loopholes so that rich people can hand their wealth down to their children without paying taxes I would like to make this illegal.

In the US I would probably change the second amendement.

How/what would you change the 2nd amendment in the US? It's a bit of a slippery slope to change some of the first amendments because some of those are how we have what level of freedom we currently have. I'm not a gun owner nor do I want to be... but I do recognize that the people abusing the privilege shouldn't be able to tear it down for the majority of people who aren't.

Having Children 100%. Can't really think of a greater evil than bringing consciousness into this world were nothing is promised except suffering and death. There's absolutely no moral reason for humans to have not gone extinct already. The selfishness of the masses to procreate despite the circumstances of life is unfathomable

New births — that way we'd spare new people from suffering in this samsara.
— I'm being idealistic, I know forbidding people from having children is immoral.

I would probably adapt it to European standards. I think this could save a lot of innocent lives. In the 21st century normal guns are useless if you want to defend yourself against the tyranny of your government.

Ehh. Forbidding people from imposing harm on others isn't necessarily immoral. There's no altruistic reason to have children aside from maybe pursuing the efilist end of animal procreation. As far as most people go however, them choosing to birth more people is innately self serving

People have children out of instinct — it's more unconscious than conscious. They have children because they're cute, because they want someone to care for them when they're older, because they want to pass down an inheritance, continue a family business… Deep down, it's an impulse of the parents' ego. I've seen parents have children as if hoping the child would bring a better future for them.

But I also know many people have children because they think they're doing something good for the child — so they can see a sunset, eat ice cream… But that's just a common Pollyanna syndrome — thinking life is good despite all the pain. And because they believe life is something good that must be perpetuated, there will always be huge resistance to antinatalism. But anyone who looks at reality honestly realizes that even the best life ends in a tomb.

Saving suicidal people, having more than a billion in euros, 50% of extra money has to be given away to government, the rest can be given away however they want.

I would probably adapt it to European standards. I think this could save a lot of innocent lives. In the 21st century normal guns are useless if you want to defend yourself against the tyranny of your government.

Why wouldn't guns be effective? Yeah the government got higher grade military weapons but the government does not benefit from killing massive amounts of people nor causing mass destruction with said high grade military weapon. Too many ppl die means less tax for them and probably less people working. The government also has to contribute to rebuilding shit after civil wars.
I'm also for gun ownership cause firearms are extremely reliable for suicide if you know what you're doing. A lisence being required would be nice though.

This! The USA is the only industrialized nation on earth that doesn't guarantee health care. Why should health insurance be tied to your job? What does the company you work for have to do with having health care? If you lose your job here health insurance is very expensive. Why should people go bankrupt or die because of a health issue they have no control over? I am an independent. On some issues lean right. On some issues I am in the middle. This is one of the issues where I lean way left.
