Hi guys,
I am a big fan of democracy and wonder if it could work if the whole world would be united in one giant union.
Would such a government consisting of more than 100 nations even be able to act anymore?
I think to be able to effectivly rule, there is a need for a few people who have real power, like the roman triumphirate, At least for the administration. They should be elected for a few years, maybe for a lifetime. But the parliament should be able to unseat them.
Seperation of power is necessary to imho.
What are your opinions on that? How do you imagine such a government?
the world united as one state with one government would basically look like the usa today,
it would have a capitalist elite that would controll the money and the labouring money earning cattle that wants that world state, and pays with their work a huge price for it. they would systematically lose substance btw. as every power greedy person would try to become part of the capitalist elite, living of the work of the other.
societies tend not to be unified for quite a while this way, as they tend to need external forces to be this way,
but you could also illude yourself by becoming a citizen of the world by working for the money of the world bank, which trust in the end will enrich the banksters in the world bank in the first place.
i would only join such a world state if i would be allowed to be capitalist in that state.
regards
