Keep dreaming, buddy.
The quoted fragment is a contradiction in terms.

there are multiple things about a one world gov. that i do not like simply because (as an american) the loss of rights that would surely come with globalization. would we be able to own guns? would we have the right to overthrow the government in time of tyranny? would we have the right to say NO to the government? would free enterprise be a thing of the past?
like i said earlier, the taxes! taxes here in the US are bad enough, i cant even imagine paying on a global level. i know its nice to think some good politicians would get into power and make the world a better place, but fact is... theres no way its going to happen. theres always somebody out there (a faction, shadow gov, or terrorist group) that wants to kill and gain power. it would be a constant struggle for power over who gets to rule the world, its just bad juju in my book.
im hoping the US will pull out of this horrible situation and start towards stateship rather than TOTAL federal government power. you and i think very very differently, i want smaller gov. and you want world gov... which one has more power to do what it pleases to its citizens?
I MAY NOT LIKE WHAT YOU SAY, BUT I WILL DEFEND TO THE DEATH YOUR RIGHT TO SAY IT.

i respect your logic in trying to find good in evil... too many of us have forgotten to make the best of what we have- or might have in the future. i just refuse to even try and see good in the NWO simply because what their primary goals and principles are.
there is more hope than you think, we do not have a chance of stopping the NWO... weve let them become to strong... we CAN take back what is ours though! they will try to kill off anyone who doesnt succumb to them. but there is going to be so many people who run and hide they wont be able to kill everyone. after they take over, we have to band together... simple as that.edit on 23-11-2010 by WJjeeper because: (no reason given)

Your one world government ends where my rights begin.
I will die fighting before I relinquish them.
Long live the Republic!
I have no enemies but those who will claim power over me for some supposed "greater good".

...You do realize that each country views their subjects as nothing more than another body, right? A drone, or worker ant, to follow along with your insect reference. Whether we have one global government, or several individual governments, the people in power are still highly unlikely to put us, as individuals, before their greed for power, money, & control. At least with one global government, there would be might be a chance for less war, less racism, less poverty, etc.
I'm not saying that I support any of the current or potential government systems this world has seen or may see... Simply pointing out that your argument is kind of, well, invalid. You state that your enemies are those who claim power over you for the "supposed greater good"? What do you think every president does, every king does? What do you think GOD does, if he genuinely exists? They have all claimed power over you for their version of the greater good.
None of us are truly free.
