I would limit the amount of children a family could have based on their economic status and background information.

Have you ever noticed that really poor people are the ones who have like, 7 kids? I'm sorry, but I think the government should limit everyone to 2 children. If you want more after that, you should have your background checked to A.) make sure you aren't raising children in a criminal household and B.) make sure you can afford it. The average child costs are $20,000 a year. So, how is someone who only makes say, $25,000 a year going to be able to afford 5 kids and bills? Not to mention their well-being.

Trailers and mobile homes would be outlawed.

Christianity SHOULD be taught in schools.

I personally believe this country would have less crime and a nicer overall atmosphere if Christianity was spread.

***Just a side note***

I think a lot of people hate Christianity because it tells them that something they like to do is wrong. Take premarital sex for instance. People who enjoy it would hate Christianity because it tells them it is a sin and it is wrong. Well nobody likes to be told they are wrong. So instead of thinking about it, they hate it, because it tells them things they enjoy are wrong and advises them not to do it. It says the same for excess alcohol and any kind of drug use. *Even homosexuality* (I am NOT saying anything bad about this!!! Don't take it that way) Because the Bible tells you its wrong and advises against it, everyone hates the Bible and Christianity because it is restricting on their freedom to live as a human being. Instead of looking at the positive effects the stances that the Bible takes may have, people shun the Bible and Christianity entirely, because they
