I believe by removing nationalism and ethnic diversity we can end conflicts. Every citizen needs to be taught that they are no better than others and that their responsibility is to serve the race rather than the individual. As someone said there exists the problem that one nation (in the time before the disolving of national identities) may try to wield power through the excuse that "well we have the biggest poupualtion in the world, or we have the largest country etc" but they must come to learn that China for example may have 1 billion world citizens but there are 5 billion other humans in the world. A country may have a political system (using China again as an example, since it is a large country with a large population using a distinct political system) that they feel is superior to other existing systems and that they believe the world state should use, but existing political systems should be removed and a whole new system suited to the advancement of the world as a whole should be instituted.

Uh and how do we remove "ethnic diversity"? hmmm? Not to mention if you remove "ethnic diversity" you leave the door open to lots of bad crap.

This is not a theory that assumes Democracy should be the default system. Democracy is the tyranny of the majority over the minority and the use of what is popular over what is best. Instead of 51% of the population forcing the other 49% to do what they want, a system is necessary where a group tasked with the guidance of the world decides on the most logical course of action.

In other words true form of tyranny wherein the minority who decides they are superior gets to rule over those they see as inferior, briliant idea there man (rolleyes)

Puting aside for a moment the contentious issue of Switzerlands past history I would like to point out the fact that Switzerland is renowned for everything being orderly. The trains run on time and the population is cared for by the government. Switzerland does not have a single national leader, but instead has a council of ministers each of whom runs their department. Since it is deemed necessary to have a single figure represent the country at international meetings and events a President is chosen each year from the council but they have no particular powers, they are just that years representative. I didn't know before about the effect bureaucracy had on the longevity of the state but I must say I am delighted at the information as it enforces my longstanding belief that bureaucracy is the ideal means to run the state.

Well let's see consider that it's run like a giant buisness (which the country practically is), I definately wouldn't recomend this for a world government as blood money would probobly be considered an okay thing.

Every citizen needs to be taught that they are no better than others and that their responsibility is to serve the race rather than the individual.

Dumbest thing I've ever heard.
