America, the land of the free and home of the lazy, as a nation we are no longer as motivated and energized as we once were. We continually design new inventions to make life easier; to make tasks take less energy and less focus. While these gadgets and life hacks may make life easier for us, they have helped us to the point now where we are dangerously lazy. These things are not the cause of our sluggishness we are, merely a symptom of the disease. Students struggle to finish all their work in school, and an extremely productive day at the office is starting to be a thing of legend. The honest truth is Americans are lazy people, and since we can’t change the human nature, why not give the nation a little boost? America should enhance its water …show more content…

Well, first and foremost we would have a huge jump in productivity. There isn’t an exact way to calculate how the drug would impact each person, but if someone seemed to be slacking, just have them drink more water.

This would set people in place to ensure all water supplies are properly enhanced with Adderall, which would be 5mg/liter. This is because doctors recommend a 5mg dosage a day but not exceeding 40 mg, so if each person is to drink 2 liters day, the recommended water intake, they would have a 10mg dosage of Adderall. This would give America the boost we need to get working, the carrot on a stick being held in front of a rabbit if you will. I say the CARROT program be put into place as soon as possible to maximize profits, but because I’m not in any position of power or influence, someone else needs to carry the torch. Go and take this plan to Washington to return this nation to its former glory, meanwhile I’ll be at home on my couch eating Cheetos waiting for my water to give me the motivation to do
