The reason we make such poor decisions today is because somebody wants it that way. They don't want us to have the information, and what information they do want us to have is only that which serves the purpose of inspiring hate and division. Divide & conquer is the oldest tactic in the book...
We are manipulated into shortages of materials, land, food, water, money, education, healthcare, information, and friends.
None of this has to be. Humanity is suffering because the system we allow to continue is killing us. We must change that system, because it is not meeting human needs. Clearly, a world where enough food is produced to feed 27 billion people, yet 20,000 people starve to death every day has a fundamental problem in how it works.
Solutions are not centralization and control of decision making. When you eliminate input and creativity from larger and larger numbers of people, you don't create a smarter government, you create a more easily manipulated population.
Collectively, humanity has the means to create for itself fantastic wonders to solve humanity's problems. Avenues of communication are vitally important, but just as important is the authority of the people to do for themselves what is needed without interference or control. Today, we still have not matured to the idea that the people can and should decide for themselves. Instead, we are restricted by the state before we do anything. We need a license to drive, a license to marry, a license to run a business, a building permit, a tax permit, hell... we even need a license to fish.
If the minds of this world can communicate their ideas, and then discuss and revise plans collectively with all of humanity, the political results achieved would be far more efficient and effective than the actions of any president, political ideology, or bureaucracy. There is work to be done, but we shouldn't trust that work to supposed heroes. We can only save ourselves.
Right now we don't know we are being manipulated to self destruct. Once we realize just how much of human suffering has been caused by the will of a relatively small number of evil people, maybe humanity will finally learn the hard lesson that we are all in this boat together. The problems we are facing today are going to require everyone's cooperation to fix. The ship is sinking and if we all don't work together to fix it, we shall continue hating and fighting each other all the way to the bottom of the sea...
we need help imo.
there are people that can if we want them to....

This is my own personal view.
I believe we humans have gotten to a state of mind where we are completely out of control, and i believe we should be controlled.
There is too much information, too much freedom, too much violence, terror and abuse in this world.
I for one welcome the NWO, and i can just hope they do the job properly, the world will be a better place for it.
