There has been a lot said about people don't want a world government, but guess what all you sweet lips we have a world government now.

What do you think the UN the IMF and the Work Bank is. They tell the all governments what they can and can't do and they got to obey them.

Did anyone vote for who they wanted in the UN, IMF or the World Bank. If we pull out of any of them were will we be in 20 years time?

Got to agree the UN is an organisation that is used and ignored as is convenient. Just look at the US the way they use the UN to push other countries around.

Wait until China and India take over the global economy. We'll be jumping up and down for a world government then!

A thread about world government is not political enough to be in the politicians suck thread?

Apparently the narrow minded views of the mod go a long way here.

If it's not about Bob Katter, Pauline Hanson , Abbott or Gillard, it's just not about politicians. Be careful not to mention a politician from Uzbekistan, the mod will think that's a make believe planet in a far away galaxy..........extreme politics.

Yeah, the UN simply advises or recommends...it's the very definition of a toothless dog, it can bark all it wants, but it can't bite..

Personally, I'm not against the idea of a single World Government..

It'd depend on HOW it was set up, and run..

I'm sure these power brokers of the modern world are getting together to find ways to make your life easier........NOT.

Who controls the British crown?
        Who keeps the metric system down?
        We do!  We do!

Who leaves Atlantis off the maps?
        Who keeps the Martians under wraps?
        We do!  We do!

Who holds back the electric car?
        Who makes Steve Gutenberg a star?
        We do!  We do!

Who robs cavefish of their sight?
        Who rigs every Oscar night?
        We do!  We do!

We live under the delusion that the world is a collection of sovereign nation states. Ha!

In actual fact, the world is a collection of competing interests: organised crime, the CIA, petrodollars, the pharmaceutical industry, the food production and distribution industry, etc, etc, etc. And all this in an increasingly interdependant global network which surpasses nations and borders. Are McDonalds, Nike, Microsoft or News Limited nationalistic? What an absurd proposition.

There are two ways we could go: World Government - the dream of cosmopolitans like Tony Blair and Leon Trotsky; or localised governance - placing the site of power within local communities and regional interests.

Interestingly, it's the latter which is taking hold in collective, regional markets such as Europe and India - particularly around food production and the promotion of regional tastes and consumer choices. We have no say in our source of our petrol, for example, but we do have some choice about where we get our food from. How we collectively consume is a huge source of power that didn't exist in the industrial age with its monetary gold standard, unions, production lines and national production targets.

Our choice is now global - look at Harvey Norman's panic about online shopping. Buy Australian? Well, not really - buy Chinese, but buy it from an Australian shop that charges double.
