The Necessity For One World Socialist Government


Two factors are propelling the World into catastrophic crisis:  the first is Global Climate Change and the second is the vast Inequality of Wealth, or I should say an extreme Concentration of Wealth into Private Hands, leaving not enough Wealth left over to pay for essential Public Infrastructures required for the maintenance of a Major Global Civilization. Starved of Resources, an Economic and Social Collapse would be inevitable, and Billions would die as the World plunges into a new Dark Ages. Our only Salvation would have to be through fundamental and systematic change.  No single nation, or even limited alliance of Nations could go it alone, as long as any Major Power still has it within its powers to irresponsibly pillage enough Global Resources to topple the rest of the World into a concatenated Collapse. (Global Capitalism, as it is now, consists of billions of intertwined connections and dependencies, where the proverbial chain is only as strong as its weakest link.   Our challenge would be to disentangle that whole mess and restructure the World Economy on a New Foundation, without first Knocking over the Old.  It is not likely we will succeed, but, well, “damned if we do or damned if we don’t”, but we at least need to give it a try).  


The task of Unifying Jurisdictions would be daunting.  Of course the Super Powers would stand in the way.  Look at what they did to Muammar Gaddafi, who was neither a Communist nor an Islamist, but who had put himself at the forefront of a Pan-African Unification Movement.  The combined Western Assault on African Political Self Determinism was as extreme as anything from the 19th Century – sheer Imperialism backed by Military force.  So the Unifying World States would have to quickly pool military resources, as well as establish their own Banking Resources, establish secure Trade Routes, and lay down plans to assure Food Security  (but maybe they could avoid the worst if only they make a contribution into the Clinton Foundation, which was probably Colonel Gaddafi’s most significant oversight… He did not Pay Off the Wicked Witch of the West).  


Of course, the World States cannot be Democratic, because every Small Country would be assured of NEVER being represented by a Popular Democratic Vote which would hand a Solid Dominance to only the most populated Jurisdictions.   As we now see in Democracies the World over, it is the Ethnic or Religious Majorities that take the Entire Pie.  49% of People, the Losers in Democracy, are effectively disenfranchised.  So, no, Government would have to be by open competitive Civil Service Appointments, and all Economic and Fiscal Policies would have to be governed according to some Constitutional Algorithm which would guarantee each World Citizen a specified Piece of the Pie.  Fortunately, the World now has very affordable Super Computing Information Systems, which advances in Artificial Intelligence will only make better, and so Computerized Economic Planning could encompass the Whole World Jurisdiction with enough fine-grained resolution to specify the resource disposition down to each individual.

Now, if the Smaller Nations are protected from the Democratic Dominance of the Larger Nations, than the Smaller Nations would be less fearful about bringing Larger Nations into the fold.  The viability of the World States would depend upon their attaining a certain critical mass of mineral, food, and manufacturing resources. In the same way as the Advanced Nations now use their effective Monopoly in Capital and Weapons Systems to compel the developing Nations to acquiesce to their Hegemony, well a Unified Front of World States, with enough “Stuff”,  could turn that same dynamic around on a declining Western Europe and Canada (though I suspect the United States, with its Dooms Day Military Megalith, designed on purpose to oppose the Rest of the World, will be the last hold out).  One wonders whether any of the Major World Powers would find it to their advantage to join the World States.  Certainly, any of the Major Powers that now feel politically and militarily isolated, could benefit by not just attaining an incremental increase in their pool of military weaponry, but more importantly by having access to military bases all around the World as well as whatever maritime rights that go along with them. 

And, yes, we need to discuss the World Military Organization.  The Military would necessarily have to be a “World” Organization and not just Regiments from the various States, which is how the United Nations presently runs their Collective Security.  There is no cohesiveness in such a mixed force.  So, yes, Somewhere the World States would have to set up a World City, not in the territory of any of the World States, but a separate and independent Nucleus City where both Military and Political Officials and Officers could be schooled from childhood to be so totally indoctrinated in the Ideologies of World Jurisdiction that they would come out fully Identifying themselves as World Citizens, seeing their Home Regions as simply quaint Home Towns, but all their Allegiance would be to the Unified World.  It would probably be good if they never went ‘home’ again, or at least not until they retire to a rocking chair on the porch.

 Would China or Russia put aside their parochial National Prides and agree to the acceptance of a Unified World?  Well, why not?  If China believes in the Strength of its Culture and Civilization, then it could almost bet, that with an impartial Education for all World Citizens in the World Arts, History and Culture, that World Civilization would come along slowly towards leaning their way, and that World Civilization in the centuries to come would take on the color of the Confucian Traditions and Values.  But if they wanted to impose their Language, that should be a deal breaker. A scientifically designed Universal Language could be learned in six months.  But given six months with Mandarin and you will have barely gotten started.     

Russia could also stand to be a winner if more people were exposed to their Passionate Cultural Achievements.  Of course, I worry about both India and Pakistan – two Major World Powers, but because of their enmity and proximity, well, they zero each other out.  They are the Same People, except for an artificial difference in Religions.  Certainly, the Secular Elements in India and Pakistan could create arguably the Center of Gravity for any World Civilization, but before they can do that, they both need to get out of the 14th Century.  Iran also – the Old Persian Empire, perhaps the most Moral the World has ever known, before or since;  well, they would need to shake off that Arab Conquest they still suffer under, and remember their own Greatness as well as their own Religion.  

Europe has experimented with Broader Jurisdictions lately but is not entirely happy with how it has been going, and the Germans are still behaving like they still believe they are the Master Race.  England’s Brexit Embarrassment shows that they are delusional, supposing their declining little Island is still a Dominant World Power. 

What about Latin America?  Well, they have a strong Left Wing, although a scary and very deadly Right Wing.  We can only pray that Justice will prevail.  If the Universal World Language could be made to project a strong Latin Flavor (and who could object to that?) then I think that Latin America could be a Power Center for the World State as it strives for hopefully a Peaceful World Conquest. 

But, yes, while it may seem hopeless, the Nations of the World really do need to unite into one Unified World Socialist Government.  It should start with a series of Dinner Parties given by the various U.N. Ambassadors.  Nothing serious in the history of the World has ever begun without at first some talking over drinks.
