A call for world government.

I could become a fan of world government. In an effort to serve the common good. Some issues/problems are so big and important and crucial that they require united action. Take the environmental threats posed by climate change, for instance. We have divided fronts now. Over what to do about it. Therefore, action is delayed. Maybe postponed. Until it's too late. That's where I'd have world government step in. To force the issue. Over parochial protests. For the sake of the planet. Yes, for the common good. If we allow selfish interests to continue to prevail -- we do a disservice to mankind.  Let's do what's best for the ever-burgeoning population. The eight billion inhabitants of Mother Earth. If that means resorting to world government, so be it. --Jim Broede
