What moment in history would you change?

Slavery, Colonisation of Africa, Australia, Americas, Asia.

The systematic murder of the original residents of the islands.

History is full of things that I would fix.

Fuck that, then there'd be no Sandals Plantation Ocho Rios.

Bloody hell, that would change too much stuff... There will be no USA, Canada, Caribbean, Australia, New Zealand, South America, as we know it, then there's all the stuff we take for granted, like food, music... Its a mindfuck thinking about all the things that would be different.
 
I would change the meeting of MARS advertizing and marketing when they decided to change "Opal fruits" into "starbursts".

This sad chapter in humanity shall be rectified in the new world order.

Fuck me. That would have totally, and I mean totally, changed the course of human history.

I know probably would of eliminated the slave trade before it began as well

It would also have meant there wouldn't be any cotton to be sent over to Manchester to manufacture into goods, and there wouldn't be a need for the vast expansion from the industrial revolution. And without the slave trade, America wouldn't have boomed like it did.

Course, the slave trade was abhorrent, but just sayin', the knock on effects of certain actions could be enormous.

The north was the economic driver, not the south.


I would probably go back and and either stop the Roman Empire from collapsing (don't know how) or stop FDR's 'New Deal' (don't know how - a sex scandal would probably work ...tho I've got plenty of time to come up with a foolproof plan!)

Are you a paid up member of 'The Freedom Society'?

I like freedom but I've never heard of The Freedom Society, sorry.

Do they pay well?

I have to correct myself they are actually "The Freedom Association".

They are an ultra-libertarian grouping (oh the irony) which the McWhirter twins were heavily involved in. One thing that strikes a cord is that they said they were opposed to racism as it was "a form of collectivism". Fucking priceless.
