One of:

  • eyes to see a wider spectrum of light (infrared to gamma-ray)
  • ears to increase sensitivity or reduce it close to 0 a will
  • nose to smell all dangerous stuff that is odourless (carbon monoxide f.e.)
  • muscles not to lose training after a few days (I am not sure that wouldn't fuck up methabolism)
  • have an organ to catch radiowaves (while being capable to switch it off)
  • brown fat cells to never feel cold (with added super bonus that they also kill cancer by starving it)
  • liver to remove toxins without being easily damaged

The choice is difficult :)

This is exactly the problem with capitalism, which is intended to be you do a thing i need/like for me i give you money

But was infiltrated by a bunch of people whose only purpose is to give less and less of what i need for more and more money until i tell them to fuck off, meanwhile they accumulated all the money and roam to greener pastures. it is basically like cut and burn farming, where the crops are all given to very few people and all the rest are to deal with the consequences

There is a huge difference between a private owner, and a corporation. Anyhow they might have a common approach, I would say estate ownership should be limited to a certain number through incremental taxation the more you own the larger the tax bracket, like we do for income

It is enough to have one person doing the inside job, but this will escalate too and... welcome to modern Russia

Assuming good faith, that's a hell of an assumption

No

Until the criminals learn to bribe police more than what politicians give them, and start buying more and more cops, and puff you are in a dictatorship ran by thugs

Wait, sorry nothing changes
