RE: If a world government did come to power and it wasn’t cruel or evil, would it be a good or bad thing?
"Your take on the topic would be appreciated." I wonder in my case.... Anyhow... (testing the waters)
The simple answer to your headline, from my perspective is; no, but that does not help unless I clarify. And I will to the best of my ability keep, as you mentioned, language barier in mind. (being what it seems to me, was our last issue)
Let me start with pointing out my perspective on a large factor behind the situation in African countrys today. As from information ive heard, alot of the economical issues, was in effect created in African countrys by westers influance in the form of loands, that the countrys was unabel to pay back. Resulting in western banks claming resources for cheap as "payment".
This created a situation where, even though the countrys got some technological assistance, western influance gained control over the actual resourced there. So overall taking value away from the countrys in the form of natural resources. Correct me if im wrong.
But to answwer why a global gouvernment whould not be good, even if well intentioned, I whould refer to Larken Rose and 2 of his videos named: "the tiny dot" and "If you were king" as they presents it in relativly simple ways. There is no way, from my perspective, that a global gouvernment could work for all areas fo this world. Because the essence of a gouvernment is to have control structures in place that is the same for everyone and every area. And every individual thinks, acts and values are diferent. Also there is many diferences in the areas. Aswell as what is presented in Larkens videos, that for there to be a gouvernment, it needs funding, and the bigger it is the more funding it needs. And the higher % if the earnings from each individual needs to be payed to the gouvernment. As long as there is a monetery system as sutch in place.
Not to mention the responsability and power to place in 1 individual or even 1 organisations hands. They cannot even close to, keep an eye on everything that needs to be monitored, unless, that is, everything is connected up to a smartgrid. (oh isnt thats whats going on?)
Just saying.. Too large a subject to put detailed enough into 1 comment though. But Recomending Larken Rose's material on this, even though he can be a little too "black an white / 1's and 0's / left or right" on the subject.
