The country&#8217;s leader and a few representatives of his or her choice should go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If we only fight, we&#8217;ll lose many of our citizens. Those citizens can be very useful in our nation and their families. If we lose too many volunteers a nation can fall. Families shouldn&#8217;t have to lose one of their members just because of war<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Millions of people flee their homes and native land to get away from war. Families separate and lose their precious belongings. I don&#8217;t think anyone should have to lose any item that they loved and start over in a place they don&#8217;t know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Countries can waste a lot of money on war. Stocking up enough weapons to fight back strongly takes a lot of money. If we could talk it out , it won&#8217;t cost anywhere near that amount of money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is my idea of a better world. Please tell me how you think the world would be a better place in the comments. Just like MLK, I have a dream.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This MLK Day, I read a poem about Martin Luther King. Then I thought about how the world could be a better place.
