Every now and then a certain person comes up with an idea for a better world...however more often than not it does not leave the inventors or conceivers head...
Does anyone have any idea's they think have the opportunity to change the way in which we live? *and im not talking about the Orple here*

I would invent mosquitoes that suck out body fat... call them Lipo-Squitoes!
And then I'd engineer chickens to be boneless from the start, so I could get better meat from them without having to pick it off the bones. Naturally, this would mandate an exoskeleton similar to a crab, hence.... Exo-Chicken!
Finally, I'd engineer a cross between a Cat and Rabbit, call it a Cabbit. The idea has been published before, but nobody has done anything to make these cute little pets a reality. Saddens me.

indeed. I think this is the point where we all be grateful that you are still young and henceforth have most of your life ahead of you
on the invention side of things tho
i'd like to see:
Teleportation booths, instead of trains.
non greasy oil to cook chippies in
newspapers that dont leave black stuff all over your fingers...
and showers that can be temperature programmed so that when you (or any other member of your household) jump in the shower, it recognises you and turns the water to the exact temperature of your preference....

Social Welfare Revamp
My plan is this, you get 6 months of benefits and housing allowance etc. These benefits are better than they currently are.
Then once the 6 months are up, if someone still cannot find a job they have to do 20 hours community service per week, depending on ones skills, cleaning & recycling initiatives, volunteer visits to the elderly / disabled. After 12 months the hours increase to 30 hours a week. Refugees should also be included in this program, that way they cannot be accused of bludging from the state.
Anyone who does not comply loses benefits, simple as that.
