Default Re: Your Views on a world Government

Revoultion is always the answer. If the government is oppressing your rights and nearing or at the point of a Totaltarianistic state, revoultion is good for you and you country. It has worked in nearly every situation, America, France, Cuba, Mexico, and so on.

America did not have a revolution, we fought a war of secession. If it were a revolution, the British government would have been completely deposed. As King George retained the throne, more or less, it was not a revolution.

Your mileage may vary on France and Mexico, but you call Cuba's revolution a success? I guess if the goal was to secure poverty for all...
