A Jolly Good Yarn...
If I ruled the world parents would have to tell, or read, their children at least one story every day.

Child care...
If I ruled the world assisted living facilities for older people would also be daycare centers for children.
"Grandparents" caring for "grandchildren" makes everybody happy. The elderly would have an interest, which would keep their minds in better condition (especially since children tend to ask questions). The children would have a source of unconditional adult love and attention, not to mention role models. It's good for the health and well being of all concerned. There would be trained supervisors, of course, but instead of 1 or 2 adults trying to keep up with 30 kids, there would be enough adults to go around.

Smackdown!
If I ruled the world bad guys (as determined by me, and they can be women too) would get a good spanking and sent to their rooms to think about what they did.
Or, prison sentences and mandatory community service to help rebuild that which they helped to destroy. Since exceptions prove the rule... sometimes there will be no second chances.

Plant Mania...
If I ruled the world every town would have enough public garden space for every resident.
You wouldn't have to use it if you didn't want to, but it would be there if you did.

Heal!
If I ruled the world medicine would be a not for profit industry. Doctors could have private practices, if they wanted, but basic medical care would be available and free for all.
Well, okay, not free, but included.

Mmmmmmilk...
If I ruled the world everyone who wanted one (and had room) would be given a milk animal.
Cow, goat or sheep, whichever suits the climate and lifestyle the best. Rabbits, chickens, ducks and geese would also be options (not for milk so much as meat and/or eggs)

Rubdown...
If I ruled the world everyone would take at least one class in massage (or the local equivalent).
It's good to have a skill. Particularly one that brings me such pleasure.

Style...
If I ruled the world, I would bring back clothing styles from the 1940s.
Women in clothes that flatter the female figure. Definitely.
Men in hats and suits. Oh yeah.
(I wouldn't insist on the super high waist, but I would insist that pants get worn above the butt, and jeans that fit are all right too)

Conversation starter...
If I ruled the world every conversation would begin and end with my name.
Sample Conversation:
"Hi Harley."
"Hi Harley. Hey George. How's it going?"
"All's well, Hassan. Where do you want to go to lunch?"
"That Mexican place that has the chile verde."
"Sounds good to me. Noon?"
"Noon. Later, George."
"See ya, Hassan. Bye, Harley"
"Bye, Harley."
