If I were given the chance to become a dictator, I would weep with disappointment. What I desperately, desperately want to be is not a mere dictator but a god. Nevertheless, I would utilize what power I was given. I would have some money printed off for me--as much money as I wanted for me to do with whatever I wish. Then I would start a special nationwide contest. Attractive males all across the country would stand before me and answer a slew of questions. I don't know what the questions would be, except they would tell me whether a given male was a strong candidate for being my romantic partner. Eventually I would find the one. Aside from that, I would:

-Create some policies intended to combat climate change.
-See to it that more money was devoted to the advancement of technology.
-Make most recreational drugs legal, even though I do not personally have any desire to use them.
-Mostly let the government continue to run as usual, except I would have the power to step in and terminate or initiate any policy.
