Michael Lewis
If I have become God, and am now able to pull the levers so that anything I want will happen, the first thing I would do is that I’d change the climate back. I’m God, so I can do that. That would take care of all the droughts, global warming and all the rest of it. Then, and this would be an odd thing for God to do, I would rid the world of belief in God. In my world, everyone would be an atheist.
Then, I’d take all the people who ran, say, the largest 50 financial institutions in the world—they are all currently men—and I would replace every one of them with a woman. After that, I would take the six or seven biggest companies in Silicon Valley, and I’d move them to places that have serious unemployment. So I would move Google to, say, West Virginia. And I would move Intel to Oklahoma. Facebook would relocate to Amish country, in Pennsylvania.
