Single payer health care not tied to employment could make America great again but it's not going to happen anytime soon.

All these health insurance C-suite executives should be begging for nickels on highway medians.

And we already have a single payer system that is just waiting to be expanded. Medicare. It isn't perfect, but it's a damn sight better than any private insurance.

I would pick "rebuilding Wrangel island" or something like that.

Wrangel Island is super cool though, Wooly Mammoths survived there for six thousand years after they went extinct on the mainlands.
