Come the revolution we shall all have cake, nothing else but plenty of cake .
PS. we are all equal but some are more equal than others.
Global govenance is an extension of what we have already, central government. It already exists to a large degree. You only have to witness the current paranoia in order to appreciate that the fiancial system that governs our labour is gobal.
The big problem with it is that it does not work, well not as most would like it to.
There is a reason why centralised government will not work and that is because it inversely opposed to the human system. The human system works best based on the number involved. The ideal is roughly 150. The reason is that that is roughly the number that people can interact with on a personal basis. That is why military companies are never bigger than 220 people. There are many studies on the number of folk it takes to achieve things. Look at F1 pit crew. The ideal team for maintenance on military aircraft is between four and seven.
The larger we organise the worse it gets. Ask anyone who has been in the military where the cock ups start occuring and why exemplary leadership is required to pull people together.
So when you get to centralisation of anything, Telstra, government, whatever, the system breaks down and becomes very susceptable to corruption and inefficiency.
I listen to ABC News Radio a lot and subsequently proceedings in Canberra. Even Senator Bob is going on about a new world order. What a farking frightening concept to think that he may become globally influential.
There will be a day when the human race makes decisions globally, when we come to realise that in relation to the globe we are a part of it and reliant on it's health globally. We will then have come to terms with the fact that putting poor countries in debt or going to war against them for their resources is barbaric and counter productive.
"Out of these troubled times, our fifth objective — a New World Order — can emerge..." - George H.W. Bush, 9 /11 / 1991
meaning...out of this contrived financial collapse,our 5th objective--a one world government--can be implemented.
did hear Paul Keating on 60 minutes once mention the New World Order,something like ''Russia can become part of it.''
like he himself and Russia is not part of it already.
Paul Sheehan explains the issues very well today in the Sydney Morning Herald.

Global government which we have by proxy with organisations such as the IMF, the World Bank, the various arms of the United Nations, trans nation non government organisations, trans global corporations and so on, create more problems than they solve.
The idea that world government could get us out of these issues has little merit. World government is the next stage of the process that is ruining humanity. Power would be increasingly centralised with the vast majority left without a say in their life. The answer to many issues facing us is less government, not more.
To some other guy, My post is quite legible, a bit cramped and in one paragraph however I conceed there are many abstract concepts you most likely cant fathom.
To flysurfer, Indeed, I read so many years ago about the fundamentals of civilisation, and the early thinkers and Socrates being the Voice of Plato as their are actually no written records of Plato apparently. or was it the other way around? doesnt mattewr which, their philosophies are carved in stone
As for your fractal theory, Im sure the spheres can work into that, As the Spheres connect they form a bubble matrix or Boolean each other to co-incide as per the fibonacci sequence.
We should really be looking at it from a perspective of how much we have actually acheived as an uncivilised race and I spose its only human to want for better, the utopian ideal, thats how far we've come we can think abstract thought and act on it with help from others, (co-operation) we speed up the process.
My personal take on the whole thing is that we are all connected like an organism, we are merely something akin to a bunch of atoms making up a Nephron unit in a Kidney of a goat and our universe is that goat, Bloody hell who mentioned Goats this morning, Im obessed now. goat blowers ;)

Yep. Trying to do it by force fails every time, like I said. Now go back further. Where did they come from?
A one world government would of course make war between nations by definition impossible as those nations would no longer exist. However it is likely the one world government would wage war against individuals and groups who disagree with the government and want to be independent of the government.
If for example the European descent people of Australia wanted independence as they felt they were being disadvantaged by the world government, they would be vilified, denigrated and persecuted. The world government would have to do this to keep in power. Like all governments it's primary aim would be to remain in power. Famine is primarily a political weapon. If a world government wanted to punish it's enemies, famine could be used as a punishment.
The elimination of war is a laudable aim. However creating a powerful government is not the answer. The answer is to reduce the power of government. Imagine a world where the king/president/prime minister/dear leader declares war and everyone tells him or her to get stuffed and ignores the declaration. Wars are caused by states deciding to have a war. Most of the time they don't even declare war. Most civil wars are usually the result of the state not responding to civil pressure or neighboring meddling states.
The colony of NSW would never have fought Victoria or any other colony as there were too many links and too much mutual interest to have a war. The idea that forming the Commonwealth of Australia prevented war here is quite novel.
^^^ OK someotherguy, before he answers that tell us how on earth a one world Govt would be democratic when so many are against it?
Could we seriously get everyone to agree on who, and where it is based and all the resource allocation / monetary stuff etc etc - I doubt it very much. Even less likely when you see all the doomsayers have been preaching against it for many years.
north and south vietnam war , north and south korean war., the amercian civil war etc
what makes people think there wouldn't be a world 'civil' war
all the power brokers appear to nodding towards a 1wg so why do they keep building their military if there isn't going to be any more wars- what, just in case
now, when i see the major powers disband their military programs then i'll believe there will be no wars.
sure it's a simple dumb way to look at
