The world is rife with unnecessary and disturbing events, making it overwhelming to determine where to begin when seeking to make a positive impact.
A user took it to the forum, and asked “If you could ban anything, what would it be?”. Here are the top responses.
SCAM CALLS

“Most of these scam calls are probably illegal already, but there’s no way to (legally) stop or trace them,” said one user.

“Politicians should be required to disclose the information of any of their donors who give more than $10,000, require shell companies spending money on elections to disclose their owners, and mandate that election ads list their sponsors’ major contributors.
Not only for election-related activity, but also to campaigns to influence governmental decisions. This transparency enables the electorate to make informed decisions and give proper weight to different speakers and messages.
It is essential to voters’ ability to evaluate the merits of political messages. The disclosure also allows citizens and shareholders to react to the speech of corporate entities in a proper way.”, said one user.
BATHROOM DOOR GAPS

“Gaps in bathroom stall doors. Seal it up, and add a vent fan.”, said one user.
“This is a weirdly American thing. As a European visiting the USA for the first time, I was amazed. Why does every public toilet door have a great gap down the side or along the top? Bizarre!”, said another user.
CHILD BEAUTY PAGEANTS

“Parents put their kids in child beauty pageants and wonder why they are so insecure,” said another user.

“I was in a forced marriage at age 16, in the 80s in the US, state of NY even.

24-HOUR NEWS CYCLE
