This is a question B3TA fixes the world

Moon Monkey says: Turn into Jeremy Clarkson for a moment, and tell us about the things that are so obviously wrong with the world, and how they should be fixed. Extra points for ludicrous over-simplification, blatant mis-representation, and humourous knob-gags.

Ban coolness
Want to solve all of societies problems in one fell swoop? Ban everything that is 'cool'. From the smallest annoyances to the biggest social problems, banning cool would bring about a utopia.

And what a utopia! Every cyclist wearing a helmet and elbow pads, with a nice loud bell on their handlebar, every driver with two hands on the steering wheel (ten to two) and their full concentration on the road. Children would march politely to school in double file, wearing a high-vis jacket and holding hands with their walking partner.

Without cool music to listen to, nobody would want to do drugs. In fact, only non-cool drugs would be available, and none of those are harmful.

With all the time we'd save by not doing anything cool, we'd be forced to be productive. The debt crisis would vanish - the rich wouldn't be able to piss away their money on booze and yachts and ladies - they'd probably just hand it all back to the taxpayer when they realise that hardly anything uncool is worth buying.

Organised crime? I think you'll find that's cool. Guns? Some people seem to think they're cool, so that's enough for an outright ban. Smoking? Drinking? Looting? Pissing away your working day on teh interwebs? It doesn't get much cooler than that.

And when Samuel L Jackson is brought in front of the firing squad, weeping hot tears for his most subtle of crimes, when every good DVD, CD and book is burnt on the altar of anti-cool, when we gather every year around the flames of wicker-Fonzies, we will finally celebrate our re-lapsarian victory.
