The further away from your level your representatives are from you, the less accountable to you they are.
So let's see ... what's wrong with a world government? I don't know. What's wrong with Washington?
Now understand that a world government is even farther removed form you than Washington is. That's what's wrong with a world government.
If you left the problem to university students to solve they may come up with something like regional governments that connect centrally for food distribution, legal tenders, transportation etc. I'm confident they could come up with a way to keep diversified regions that need only comply to minimal central oversight. I'm sure it can be done.

Thanks for taking that one. I deleted two attempts to say something helpful but failed.

What is wrong with a world government? What do you people think you are going to lose with a world government? Western superiority?
If we keep shunning our own governments and refusing to speak up or get involved, then our governments will be turned against us.
I don't care about Western superiority. What is wrong with a world government?
The problem is the top-down structure where individual liberty are not valued.
The solution is bottom-up government.
I agree. But who is up there asking for it?... Rich a holes like Gates, so it is going to be them and their buddies at the forefront fixing the game for themselves on a global scale.
I don't mean to sound like I'm ranting but I have always kind of though that the NWO conspiracies have been pushed to scare people away from the idea so that the wealthy do not have to maneuver their shady plans in public where people want the same thing but public control.

As opposed to people with extensive experience in what we have today? I'm amused about getting to say what I am about to say to you - with your avatar and all...
We need REAL change. A fresh look. Who cares if it is ignorant to "reality"? reality is ignorant.
University students are in their prime. It is the last stop before the end of ideals. You don't like ideals?

The average college kid is more interested in strip clubs than stripping down society and building it back up so no, I will pass on their ideals until they gain experience out in the real world.

The premise of your article is wrong:
I was protesting at the G8 meetings and the "SiKo" I don't know how you people call it, the security meeting(?) not because I think NATO and UN are a bad hing, but because they are not doing enough, Focusing on wars instead of preventing them. So it is kind of funny, if you think about it, Bill Gates one of the wealthiest man on earth eating his own poop (allegedly) while others discussed at some point if our westerner wealthy poop wouldn't be enough to feed the world...
It is a sick planet, with sick people on it, but that doesn't make every idea we ever had a bad one. We are just half-arsed and lack comittment, in a sense of "oh yes that sounds good let us do it. Oh you meant actually DOing something... oh well no thanks, let's wait till it is too late, then they already killed eachother a bit and it is less dangerous and expensive."
