Basically, Japan is the most developed nation on earth. Not because of technology, or culture, or anything of the sort. But they were the first developed nation to have their birth rate drop and pyramid start shrinking. In that sense, their policies are ahead of every country on earth that still keeps admitting massive amounts of immigrants to keep their populations up.

All guns should be surrendered and destroyed en masse. They are fun, but society would be happier, healthier, and with far less suicides and DA without them.
I've seen too many close calls to consider them safe for society at large.

Votes should be inversely weighted by age. The vote of someone who's going to clock out before the next election even rolls around shouldn't be worth the same as the vote of someone who's going to have to live with the consequences for half a century or more.

DUI laws are too strict. It shouldn't be all or nothing at .08 BAC but more severe punishments for more severe inebriation. .08 is pretty low and people who drink regularly can function fine at that level.
People hate this one but... hey, it's my most unpopular opinion.
