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?
I think there are definitely people high up that would like to have a world government. I heard that a North American Union could be the start of something like that. I definitely think that one world government is a bad idea. It would give too much power to a small group of people. Every region and country has their own problems and concerns. There's no way that some group of people in one place in the world could care for the problems of all people in the world. They would be far too distant. I'm sure there would also be many countries against it. How would you get those countries "in line"? By force?
