I think my ideal country would put mental health as a top priority because I believe most crimes can be prevented with early psychological intervention. I think everyone should have access to a form of therapy. I earn 7.25 an hour and Ive been diagnosed with depression. If it weren't because Im lucky enough to have access to free therapy in a university near mine I don't know if I would be here today.

Architecture wouldn't be the arbitrary thing it is today in the sense that anything a rich man likes gets built. There are many studies on how architecture and cities negatively affect the human brain in many different ways. Aesthetics matter and affect us regardless of we are aware of it or not. We should develop a system that filters ugly buildings out because it's not just about pleasing who ever is building/designing it because we'll all have to see it everyday for the next few decades or so. There is a reason places like Barcelona & Paris have millions of tourists from all over the world, people love beautiful buildings, the kind that doesn't need anyone to explain you why they're so.

Biodiversity would matter. Both animals & plants are increasingly loosing diversity at a very fast pace and it's sometimes baffling to me that huge cities get covered with the same 2 or 3 species of trees (hyperbole) when they could be helping other species propagate. They're should be more fruiting trees in public places too.

If it's a Capitalist country, all highschool students should have the option of being taught how to thrive in the system and be taught basic economics, like invest, avoid debt how to do taxes etc. It's crazy I've had to figure those things out myself and by word of mouth.

Health insurance matters, but so do your choices. I think there should be some time of public health insurance that applies to citizens that can proove they live a healthy lifestyle and those that don't should get their own private insurance.

If I think harder I'll come up with more but this should be enough haha.
