Suppose that could work.

Not to mention at a lower cost, with greater efficiency and with less injury/death.

Bow before your unimaginably powerful overlord!

Wait a minute, I'm currently too busy holding a cork in mid air for petty groveling.

If the power would give everyone exactly the same strength regardless of gender, then statistics would show a decrease in rape cases.

Everyone gaining the same amount of strength and durability would indeed carry benefits. Though, it might put a damper on some sports, like (non-fake) wrestling and MMA.

Well, yeah, there's that. Though, if you keep them all equally matched, no matter what size or age they are, you stand to keep things on a more level playing field (if that's what you want to do). Still, though, that's kinda the power-based version of Communism. Might be better to let strength develop from the base.

I would give everyone Dimension Manipulator, everyone could live in their own personal Heaven for eternity and not have to worry about war or corruption or poverty

Interesting choice there.

It may also be a good thing you brought life to this thread; I'm sure we'll find some more answers from others.

The power to cure all diseases.

Whats the power Taskmaster has? It's the one where he can watch someone do something once, then imitate it perfectly. That one.

That's a very valid point. I think folks would much rather have Monica Dawson's version of Photographic Reflexes, than Taskmaster's version. That version would be an excellent choice; training for jobs would be vastly more efficient (since folks could master numerous different fields of work just by observing people who've already mastered those fields) and with everybody masterfully proficient in SOME field, the unemployment rate would drop to nearly nothing, in nearly every world economy. Though, a different one also struck me, that folks could use.

Empathy.

And I don't mean the most extreme, powerful kind. A few very specific conditions would exist to define my parameters for Empathy:

1) The user only detects true emotions (cannot be fooled by pretended emotion)

2) Only surface emotions may be felt (what emotion is CURRENTLY being felt)

3) Intense emotions may be detected without the user's conscious effort

4) Cannot turn power on/off at will, without intense training

5) Sensing an emotion is similar to experiencing said emotion

6) Cannot project intense emotions, to the point of influencing others

This, I think, would solve a lot of the world's problems.
