I want smoking to be illegal. At a minimum in public places and around children.

I want society to be self-organised such we no longer need laws and regulations that have only epidemiological justification.

4) Given all the food that is carelessly disposed of, I'm not sure if this is desirable in all cases.

6) Cutting down involvement by doctors to such a degree sounds unrealistic. You better trust the machines very well, or else: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therac-25

7) Currently being implemented.

9) I'm pretty sure this already exists? But public opinion is a very volatile and unreliable thing, as we all know.

10) Already possible, for the most part.

12) Currently being implemented as the Internet of Things. I hope you enjoy having your poorly secured door locks and light switches ending up on SHODAN, as is already occurring with connected everyday appliances.

14) Potentially vulnerable to the fallacy fallacy and the cognitive bias bias.

I want things like Uber, Lyft, and Taskrabbit to exist in my city.

I want services like Pandora and Google Music to not be restricted in my country.

I want people around me to understand what's possible with today's technology.

I want the industries in my city to move to Excel rather than tons of paper.

For now, all I want is the present to be evenly distributed.

Sadly it's more probable to make smoking harmless than expect governments to prohibit it. I guess your suggestion is more feasible.

This is what this post meant to me:

I want to be a soul-less cyborg empress given the ultimate in life by mechanical minions. I want the world in my palm, with no struggle, no meaning to mean. I am _RoboRock_
