So my preposterous mind was at work once again today. And I'm thinking...
What is really stopping the world from forming one solid government? As far as I can tell it's just that our politicians are trying to hold onto power.
Let's look at just one instance. Let's say border patrol, and America protecting it's borders. Well wouldn't it make more sense for all the countries in North and South America to just form into one government? Then there really wouldn't be illegal immigrants anymore.
I see the obvious down sides of some countries would need built up or just want built up to the levels of standards we keep in the US, and I'm sure some countries are probably claiming they are starving so we'd need to help them out.
But, if we did this, we could pretty much isolate ourselves in the Western Hemisphere. The only time we'd need to trade is just to sell our goods, but we wouldn't really need anything.
I marked this as DEBATE, so that everyone would pipe in.
AND YES.. this is looking past the fact that with one government comes all the corruption and everything that comes with creating a new government. So let's preface this debate with the stipulation that if this were to happen that we'd assassinate all the politicians in power today and start with fresh faces. Basically creating a fresh slate. So that we can eliminate all the if's and's or but's that can surface from political agendas and whatnots in forming a new country/government.
