If I could interview any past or present human being for one hour, my choice would be, The United States as a whole (not individual). There are things that most people do now that makes you wonder whether to call the men with white coats and butterfly nets for everyone. For example, the death row inmate who ate his eyes (yes he took them out and ate them), the crew at Blizzard (responsible for world of warcraft, etc), all of my neighbors, my dead relatives, and their dead relatives (that's a lot of relatives), photographers and composers.

I would want to know why they all do what they do for a living, what makes them eat their own eyeballs, or what made them so great. Why do we as a society go after only the rich and famous? I'm going to go after the poor and not-so-famous in hopes of getting better role models (honestly I don't think you want your five-year-olds to take after the unfashionable or the rich snobs). I would rather have poor nobodies than rich snobs, but that is my opinion. As a whole, the human race is pretty messed up and doing crazy things. The grandparents who built their grandkids a real "house" as a playhouse.

That's great, but what about the people starving because the economy still suffers or the ones who are squeaking by to barely make it and trying desperately to not be another statistic? I think that money could have gone into better things myself. I want to ask that fourteen year old child how she managed to lift weights that heavy. What goes into making a movie, or even a television show that doesn't flop when it airs. Why the stars get to keep all of their money, but we have to pay taxes so the rich can get even richer or why most good girls (like Brittney Spears, Hannah Montana, and Jodie Sweetin) turn into bad girls doing drugs, being in custody fights, etc.

How Michael Jackson is able to afford $1,000 a month in rent when so many average joes are losing their jobs and incomes. Why the PORN industry is asking congress for a bailout plan. I don't consider the porn industry as a "regular" job, so I don't think they should qualify for a bailout of any kind. If you want the bailout plan, go get a job as a cashier in a convenience store or something half way respectable and decent. If you don't want to leave the porn industry, then you don't qualify for a bailout plan.

I also want to ask how you can get paid to test video games or play with legos and other toys as a work at home person without having to pay for some book that supposedly "tells you the secret to making money". I'm sorry, but that "secret" has been known for years and you were not the first person to come up with it. My interview with the world would of course be televised and viewable to the entire world (pretty much like it is now) and I would ask my questions to the general public via television instead of interviewing one person.
