I'll actually make a comparison here for you to understand.
Let us replace logic with engineering, and morality with architecture.
Roll with me, if you dare.
...
Now let us return to logic and morality. The above example is simply the facts. Through experience, history, and common sense, we as humans have come to define logically what works and what does not. A simple modern republic that allows its people to keep what they make and to only tax them within a very low standard, maybe 10% of what they make. That is all. No more, and hell yes less when needed.

Better to be united than divided.
After all we are all the same.

I love this argument. It's the clearest indication of absolutely ZERO research being done. You need to learn the difference between "united" and "suppressed".

You have just explained perfectly why people don't want your precious "New World Order". You're obvious lie about people on top of each other is just an excuse for having a one world government, and of course, the excuse is to regulate how many children a person can have. Just to make sure your precious "New World Order" has this ability, you understand that religion needs to go, because certainly such regulations of how many children a person can have goes against many religious beliefs.
You stupidly claim in the same post that freedom is unrealistic, and then think people don't understand what you mean by that by disingenuously claiming that "rights" will be preserved. The arrogance of government sycophants know no bounds.

I have been to New York City if that is what you are referring to, because certainly Utica New York, or Hamilton County are not all that populated at all. Ever been outside of NYC? Typical of the brainwashed left who believe they're intellectuals simply because those who told them what to think had the audacity to tell them they're thinkers, you represent the moronic left, who stupidly huddle together in metropolises, and then point to the population of cities and say; "See, we're over populated!" Get a clue, leave the city once and a while, and come to know real people who not only know more than you do, but would never think to tell you how many children you can or can not have. Idiots come in all shapes and sizes, and whatever shape or size you come in, that you're an idiot should not be in doubt.

You can have a world union with sovereign nations. The US is a single nation with sovereign states. It's a great system. Let the locals manage the locals and the overall government just rule on big issues and direct research and funding.

How about "organized and controlled"?
When there was room to grow - to expand - to be free - - - it was a different world.
Now you have people living on top of people - - and we're still pumping out more - - for no good reason other then reckless breeding.

I personally find it very childish - - not to view the world as it is today. The truth is - humans can not keep living as they are.
Its easy to spout out the words "Freedom" - - - but it is not realistic. Not for the irresponsible directions humans as a species are going.
No one is going to eliminate Cultures. If anything "organized control" will preserve them and their rights. Religion is a different story - - because it crosses the line from personal belief to Political Rule. I do believe Religious control will be diminished. It has no business in government.

Absolutely - I think reproduction should be regulated. Even animals in the wild are smart enough to do that.
The Alliance is responsible for the government and defense of all extra-solar human colonies, and represents humanity on the galactic stage. It is a supranational government, and is based on a parliamentary system, with the Alliance Parliament based at Arcturus Station. It is unknown if the representation is based on the population of member nations on Earth and the colonies, or if all nations and colonies involved receive the same amount of parliamentary members. It can be speculated the Alliance military requires some form of oversight afforded by a Prime Minister, and the larger issue of the Alliance government would require ministers to oversee the various bureaucracies. While the Alliance is a supranational government, the member nations retain their individual sovereignty back on Earth.
