A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.

– John C. Maxwell, bestselling author

As leader of the world, my first decision would be to end the monopoly of cartels.

Hospitals will charge only what is absolutely necessary in the interest of the people they serve and doctors who don’t diagnose to the interest of the patients, but in the interests of their pockets and that of the pharmaceutical companies they represent would be fired and their licences revoked.

Only those who become doctors because they care to make a difference in their patients’ lives, more than their bank accounts, will be allowed to serve.

I will then bring all financial institutions to task and remove their ‘we are too big to fail’ badge of immunity. I say if you cannot hack it you get out. I will not allow 200 percent interests on loans people take for property and other assets and only allow a maximum of 30 percent profitability, which eases the burden on the common man. I will return the banking system to a gold backed system, and not one backed by US dollars that can be printed by the US as and when they need more.

I will reduce taxation for only basic necessities. Free market will be allowed to thrive. This way, we can ensure a corrupt free government because there is no money from reserves to fund wars that destabilise other countries and create ‘problems’ that require the reserves to solve, for the benefit of a select few.

I would disintegrate all media that have no integrity or truth in their reporting, and only allow those who are neutral.

The monopoly on ownership of media channels will be broken and media will stop being a propaganda puppet of those peddling and pushing their agenda, while pretending to be a news channel of integrity.

Now, once I have levelled the playing field so we don’t have a steady stream of propaganda hitting us from every side and numbing our brains, I will allow citizens to question everything, as it is a basic human right to question anything and everything and be given proper answers by those who have it.

I would allow open debates on any topics not burying or pooh-poohing or laughing at alternate views on anything. People get to make decisions for themselves, and not have decisions made for them.

I would open investigations on why monopolies are allowed to happen – from oil industries to pharma industries to medical and healthcare industries to insurance industries to banking industries and investment industries.

I would look at why exactly everything is getting digitalised and why there is so much of tracking of human data going on. To what effect? Why are some individuals like Bill Gates becoming demi-Gods who own practically everything from seeds and agriculture business to vaccinations and healthcare to computers and technology while also being the biggest funder of World Health Organisation?

I would start an investigation into how safe or effective the vaccines are as billions of dollars went into buying them – but people kept getting COVID anyway, many times over and then there are the rising cases of adverse reactions from the vaccinations, which is statistically staggering.

As leader of the world, I would order an independent study by neutral parties to study and disclose pros and cons of these vaccines to allay fears on usage. Make it all transparent.

As leader of the world, I will not allow impunity for vaccine manufacturers – why the special privileges? It’s their job to ensure safety and as they have made trillions, they should be held accountable. This leader of the world cares for her people, more than the profits of the pharmaceutical company. My objective is to save lives – not promote vaccines.

I would give daily reminders in building up their immunity and suggesting they go for booster infusions of vitamins and minerals to enhance their natural immunity. I will discuss with experts on immunity across the world – especially traditional methods – to inform people on making their bodies strong against viral infections, e.g. basic concoctions of turmeric, ginger, garlic, apple cider vinegar, honey, lemon are taken daily by some Asians as a great immunity builder.

I will ensure globally people are aware of things like this and more. I would encourage exercise and fresh air, instead of masking children and letting them breathe sub-standard air.

I would not allow fear to shackle and cripple my people. I would never again allow lockdowns at a time when people need family, friends, love, compassion, hugs and warmth.

Everyone cares most about their health – no one has more vested interest in you than you. As leader of the world, I would advise them on the dangers but I will let my people be free. For those who fear, stay at home. For those who aren’t, go out and feel the sun on your skin.
