I have decided to post most of my ideas so they can be used. Alas, I only have 290 million people and several great issue ideas. And, I don't care about being recognized on the issue list anyway; if I see one of my ideas up there, I'll be happy. So here are some of my best ones. I will keep them coming, so keep watching! I would really appreciate it that if you wanted to use my issue, advise me. And if you think they're good, tell me. And if you think they suck, help me.

Weapons Shock At @@NAME@@ High!
[text]A student at @@NAME@@ North High School has brought shotguns and a pipe-bomb into the school for defense purposes. This ghastly incident has gotten the attention of several groups who are calling for more security and stricter policies.
[option]"This is absolutely outrageous!" fumes @@RANDOMNAME@@, an active member in the school's Parent Booster Club. "I don't know how the school could let this happen! Obviously, due to the lack of supervision in the hallways, bullying has gotten WAY out of hand. We call for stricter bullying policies! In fact, the school should ban all bullying activities, and make a mandatory 3 month jail sentence for any violators!"
[effect] an increasing number of children are seen in prisons for calling another student 'stupid'
[option]"I agree with this concerned parent," says the principal and techno buff Harold Dooright, "but the parent isn't going far enough! I've been waitng for something like this to happen, so I can finally install the StopThat 3700 XL defense grid! With it, the whole school can be in protection! It has eyes that can gather data about the environment, and metal detector attachments, and hall pass scanners, and... anyway. This will require a lot of @@CURRENCY@@s, but think of the possibilities!"
[effect] students live in constant fear of being suspended for dropping their pencils
[option]"Now you listen here, buddy, my son is not the bad person here!" says @@RANDOMNAME@@, the parent of the accused school bully "Bruisin' Benny". "I mean, he calls this kid a name every now and then, and then he brings a gun and a bomb to 'protect' himself? From what, being called stupid? And furthermore... this principal has been WAITING FOR THIS!?! THIS is the behavior we don't want in our schools; a principal who wants to see his lovely students get blown up! We need to crack down on the principals here, NOT the bullies, no matter how much money they steal!
[effect] both nerdy and ugly students don't return to schools due to a massive wedgie uprising
[option]"We should go back to the good ol' days, where bullyin' was a right of passage," explains @@RANDOMNAME@@, an retired student and bully of @@NAME@@ High. "We used to make the freshman move marshmallows on ice blocks with their butts..." he sobs, as he wipes a tear from his eye. "Sorry about that. But really, kids today are becoming wimps. How can they expect to survive in the world if their lives are sugar-coated all the damn time? And secondly, the principal didn't do anything. He didn't TELL the kid to bring a bomb to school, so lay off him! I say let the bullies do what they want, but regulate how they do 'business'. That way, kids can get their character buildin' while the bullies don't go drownin' kids in swirlies.
[effect] name calling is all the rage at the high school

Fireworks No More!
[text]After a recent injury sustained by a kid who blew off his hand during National Independence Day, activists are protesting the resulting ban on fireworks.
[option]"It's not the fireworks fault he blew up his hand!" screams @@RANDOMNAME@@, the CEO of Bang!Bang! Fireworks Inc. "We have never received a complaint about faulty fireworks from our factory, and furthermore... what's that? It wasn't our fireworks? Well, um... regardless, this kid was probably fooling around when it went off. The Fireworks Industry should not have to suffer lawsuits against parents who can't even manage to watch their kid on a dangerous holiday... not that it's dangerous, or anything."
[effect] more and more kids are seen with missing fingers
[option]"You must be kidding... fireworks NOT dangerous?" scoffs nearby pedestrian @@RANDOMNAME@@. "My cousin's friend was actually killed because an M-80 was launched into her side by some hoodlums! We must destroy all remaining fireworks in @@NAME@@ and shut down the fat-cat corporation that is the Fireworks Industry! And think of the @@CURRENCY@@s we'll save every year!"
[effect] sparklers are considered dangerous health hazards (not that you can find any)
[option]"Now hold on a minute, there" says @@RANDOMNAME@@, the local fireworks aficionado. "We can reach a compromise hear, can't we? The Fireworks Industry should make larger and more clear warnings on their fine products. That way, a parent can't say something like 'we didn't know it would explode' or something like that."
[effect] all fireworks have mandatory labels reading WARNING: MAY EXPLODE WITH IGNITION

Only One School System?
[text]The @@NAME@@ Public School system is looking to annex its neighboring schools to become the only school system in @@NAME@@. This creates an interseting debate.
[option]"You see, it's all for the better." explains superintendent @@RANDOMNAME@@. "If the @@NAME@@ Public School system becomes the only school system, there wouldn't be as many taxes on the outskirts of our nation! All sectors of @@NAME@@ would pay a single tax for the schools. Sure, it might be a little higher than previous, but isn't that a justified price for a better school system?"
[effect] every school in the nation is ran by a single governmental figure
[option]"This is crazy!" shouts @@RANDOMNAME@@, a resident in the subsidiary of Poconoco. "Do they realize that the tax received from PPS is over 15% of our income? I'll bet they do, and they just want to get our money. Next it will be our sector! We must stop this greedy penny-pincher dead in his tracks! FREE THE SCHOOLS!!
[effect] every school in the nation is ran seperate from each other
(My idea for this one is an actual event in my city right now; Poconoco is not the name of the subsidiary)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once again, please tell me your opinion if you have one. I hate seeing threads with 2 responses and 60 something views. Oh, and if you have an issue idea, but don't want to make it (or you suck at writing them), then tell me and I'll make it for you (the ones I've made for others will be in red once I've done one). Give me nice descriptions, too. Nothing like "I want one on bombs with 2 people saying stuff about bombs".
