There would be no hunger.
There would be less people and we would do less damage to our planet.
People would not be judged upon their appearance, be it colour of their skin, whether they are thin or heavy or any other physical attribute, but as Martin Luther King Jr. said, "by the content of their character."
In the same vein, women would be treated as equals to men because they are. In many, many places around the world today this isn't so and that's a shame and, worse than that, unjust.
We would respect all other life on earth too. No infringing on the territory of endangered animals. No catching sharks and cutting off their fins for soup and dumping their carcasses back into the ocean. No murdering elephants for their ivory or bears for their gallbladders.
No one would be allowed to own a SUV or any other large, personal vehicle. There would be more subways in large urban centres, they wouldn't cost so much to build and people would take them because they were free.
There would be less bureaucracy. Things that needed to get done would get done in a quick and timely manner.
All criminals would be caught and convicted and would be sent to jail, their sentences swift and just. Your lawyer wouldn't be able to do any legal wrangling to get you less time and you wouldn't get 2-for-1 credit for days served in pretrial custody. Your punishment would fit the crime and you would be required to do public service to repay your debt to society.
There would be no corruption. Anywhere.
The workweek would be 30 hours maximum and you would have more vacation time. I think 6 to 8 weeks a year would suffice.
You would be required to do something nice to someone each and every day and it would make you HAPPY.
