Rule one. No nation has authoirty over any other nation
Rule two. No international body has any authority over any individual nation.
Rule three. No world government shall be recognized by anyone...at least my own that is.
Bottom line...Just say NO to world government. For cripe sakes man, think about what you wrote here, what were you thinking????

I agree with X. One governing body for the whole world or even one set of rules for the whole world is just plan wrong. Each countries sovernty should be respected. They all have the right to run their own countries how the poeple of that country see fit. The rest of the world needs to butt out and worry about their own country.

Not popular, right now anyway. Maybe you are TOO forward thinking? Technological changes may prove this to be true one day, but w are scaring way too many people right now talking this way. :)

Law One: No Wars
Law Two: No greed to the detriment of those in need. Clarified: If you have one source that the world needs such as oil, give or sell your resources at a reasonable price that others can afford, if they need it. They should not have to go in debt to get it. Nor should they have to go to war to get it.
Law Three: No killing. If somone has murdered somebody, place the criminal in a dungeon with nothing but the pictures of his victims to look at. Give them just enough food to survive daily on as they are tormented by what they've done. You never know, that might not be the murder.

1 is overwhelmingly generic and 2 is incredibly vague, but 3 is gloriously specific.
