Give us interstellar flight for the masses. I would immediately leave and find a better planet.

You'd be surprised just how much more delightful the planet Earth is when you have a whole lot of money. No need to go anywhere else. So it's not about star travel, it's about transcendence.

I think Death would make a good starting point. It would be nice to solve that one.

Failing that, I would ask them to solve a problem that they haven't been able to solve yet.

Nope, because we'd end up with billions of people in horrible poverty unable to die.
This would be the worst thing possible.

The thing about humans is that we have a habit of calling things problems and we reward people who we think can solve those problems. But that just creates more and complex problems. Truth is, the only real problems we have are death and how to postpone it as pleasantly as possible.

I'd like them to move the Super Bowl to Saturday, makes it easier to watch on the east coast since we don't have to get up for work the next day.

Especially once you have enough monies that you cannot spend and can pretty much live off the interest year-round comfortably.

All you are doing after that is holding other people back and enabling the bankers.

Id tell them get back in their ship. We dont want to accept help from them if they play these kind of games. Obviously they have severe issues and we are better off without them.

Indeed mate, its the greed that prevents us from sharing our resources to fix all of our problems, Individual greed
by powerful rich people.

There is enough money sitting around globally to end , war, poverty , famine , disease

WHY doesnt it happen, well thanks to the individuals who horde their wealth and cling to their power structures
so their families will benefit at the expense of every other living thing on this planet .

It's just as likely as anything that they would be so different from us that they would have nothing we want and whatever they call technology would be completely baffling and useless to us. Or, seeing as how this seems to be a Monkey's Paw existence, all of our dreams would come true but would carry a horrifying price. Interstellar space travel but it would require you to be insane for years during the flight. Immortality but in burning frozen fire. The "truth," but only available if you kill yourself.

Some people think they would be saviours. But I always feel that those people can't be saved by anyone or anything.

Offer humanity two space colonies. One for liberals and the other for conservatives, so that we can get on with our lives without this incessant fighting. Moderates are a myth they can go live with the unicorns.

These are old other world archetypal conflicts that persist today on Earth because they destroyed their civilizations and evacuated here ideologically: energy forms from Venus/Mars/Malduk. All failed there and will fail here. Communism, Marshal law, Socialism. The interesting thing is; it is being attempted again on a small scale on this planet in one Country; to see if opposing ideologies can live together peacefully (respecting each other) without destroying each other. So far; not so good.

Maybe. May qualify as salt-less pancakes. Or not really as even butter has some salt in it. So does pretty much everything else. Also, its not made in space so technically its not space pancakes.

Take us over and force us to be better by destroying every single form of law and countries we have. Allowing everything and anything as long as its under their unbiased controll.

I would ask for an advanced technology or knowledge to converting ocean water to drinking/irrigation water. Water is the most important element next to oxygen (air) for human life and agriculture.

a reply to: Alchemst7

We already have desalination plants that do that, the largest being in Saudi Arabia(Ras Al Khair) which converts 1,036,000 m3/day in to clean water.

Not that you are wrong about new clean water sources being an issue all the same but the technology is in operation.

My request... Solve this One; and thus solve them all:

That is the "go to: raping and pillaging" formulaic physical invasion. Other ways are to just TAX them out of existence. A moronic *parasite* that kills its Host. Democrats are determined to reverse the 'Rule of Law' with Anarchism; why..they want to destroy this Country; why, enslave it emotionally (big money there).
