With communications technology allowing us connect with people that whom we couldn't connect otherwise, and to arrive almost any place in the world in the space of a few hours, the idea that a single world government isn't all that outrageous.
The question now is, if it would gather enough popular support to make it possible to work a way to do so.
But, is it something that is necessary or that we would want to do? Or should we continue to have independent states to better serve the people who physically live at any given geographical location?
I believe that the answer lies somewhere in between the two extremes.
People should have a lot more say on the communities where they live. And those communities should be able to interact with each other as a group as they see fit. Not only that, the individuals should be able to move any other community as he sees fit with as little impediments as possible.
The same goes to the communities on the Internet. Each one should have the freedom to self-regulate.
May be, we should rethink governments and they functions on how they regulate human interactions. It seems that small communities are better able to meet the needs of those who live within, and then interact with other communities.
And since individuals now are part not only of the communities they live in, but also are part of virtual communities, they could make the search for local, regional, and international solutions a lot easier than ever before. Now, more than ever, is easier to find and share messages with more people in a relative small period of time.
It is time for the people to start self governing themselves. We need to take more responsibilities to what's going in our communities, and to take the actions to make our communities better.
Let's make a community where everyone is accountable for what he does, and that makes easy to people to be together.
