I would end worldwide illiteracy and lack of math skills. Really, unless you're brain-damaged to the point of being in a *coma*, there's no reason at all in the 21st century why you can't learn how to read, write and do basic functional arithmetic in your own language.
And the thing of it is, it shouldn't be that hard to teach. Kumon drills exist in multiple languages at nearly all skill levels. You know, the system that uses flash cards to drill the fundamentals, and that basically tests you on material until you have it *perfectly* before you move on up to the next stuff? That.
There is no reason why people cannot be taught, universally, how to read their own language, write it, and how to do arithmetic well enough to manage their own money and understand recipes for cooking. No reason but the hate and greed of people who believe they are too wealthy to be bothered. Never mind that it would be *dirt cheap* to do this, that a Kumon-drill centered system could basically *be* a classroom in a single briefcase.
It just amazes me....we have this program starting recently, called One Laptop Per Child. O_O We can give away cheap computers to kids now....but we can't teach them how to read or write well enough to know what's going on. Say what? -_-
Hope this helps.... ^_^ Good Question!

I'd do now what Jesus said He would do when He returned.
I'd kill all the Mormon men and all the Muslim men in the world.
I'd share the gospel with them first and give them the chance to repent. I would not expect many of them would. They would believe that if I killed them they'd get 72 Virgins forever.
That is what drives both religions, SEX!
Those are both sex cults which oppress women.

I would end world hunger.
It's a messed up world we live in. Some people deliberately starve themselves just to look fashionable, while others simply have no choice in the matter.
