If I could change the world. Here is what I would do.

unite all countries under one form of government, so basically it would be a world government with provinces (countries now).
I would get rid of organized religion and church. But encourage personal belief’s

I would encourage the building of a space elevator. To make space tourism possible.
Provide high speed wireless free internet access to the world.
Fund the genetic engineering of crops that wont die or atleast need little water so that they can grow in dry places.
Spread food and wealth around the world. So that there is no more 1st, 2nd and 3rd world countries.. everyone is equal.

Try to stop using fossil fuels whenever possible.
Encourage the thought that . more research is better then the cheaper way out.

Encourage research on alternate forms of space propulsion.
Colonize the moon and mars. (begin terraforming mars)
Develop robots to assits that can help us do anything.
Encourage working from home

Free internet telephone for all (including internet based VOIP cell phones)
One standard to High Def DVD’s!
Make apple computers the one and only choice :P
Bring back start trek. With a new episode every week.
Make it so if you are convicted of a crime. Like murder or rape. You are sentenced to life in prison. By life I mean.. in jail until you die. Or are given the choice of death after 20 years in prison

I like other languages, I wouldn't want EVERYONE to have to speak English. Also I don't think anyone would make any money in your world. Probably okay, since housing and drugs are free, but still. Maybe we would have to go back to the trade and barter system.
Wow, Adam, Thats a pretty impressive entry, There is lots I would want to do to change the world, but it would take me a good amount of time to think of it all. :)
