If you could eliminate one thing in the world, what would it be?

My personal 'vote' (despite the Quaker stance against 'voting' would be inequality as it is often the key element in creating the tensions that drive stress levels to breaking points, frequently resulting in violence --both physical and psychological.

I posited precisely this a few comments back, but nobody seemed to catch it. An interesting thing in this would be that getting rid of inequality would also have the side-effect of getting rid of billionaires and getting rid of much region-based hatred. Overall, the place would be a whole lot better if the playing-field were to be levelled somehow.

However, the billionaires and the "haves" won't likely hear of it, and the Golden Rule applies strongly here: "He who has the gold makes the rules!"
