		<description><![CDATA[&lt;em&gt;&quot;Fix the damn electorate and its lazy-ass ways.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;

It just was fixed.  At 0400 EDT November 4th, 2020. One and Done. And elections are indeed done. 

And the voters were only electing 0.0002% of the government in any case, and that 0.0002% had no real administrative control over them- not to hire or fire, end wars, we were very lucky we didn&#039;t start any new ones.  

Now mind you, the vote had begun to count again. But that got fixed, but pronto.

One of the reasons there are so many sworn affidavits to the electoral fraud is it was not centrally controlled, like Venezuela. Instead it was a common understanding of thousands of people nationwide working on elections that Trump must be stopped — by which they meant Trump&#039;s voters of course.  

They did.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t think that the world wars necessarily had a lot to do with the whole idea... You can see the idea laid out very clearly in the pre-WWI concept of inevitable world socialism and internationalism.

The wars certainly gave a lot of force to people thinking that world government would be a Good Idea(tm), one that would solve a lot of problems. However, I think that it&#039;s a lot like the idea of term limits or cutting taxes to address the problems of politicians making careers out of politics or spending too much; you aren&#039;t addressing the real problem, which is that the people you&#039;ve put in charge are, essentially, incompetent, venal, and crooks. Term limits don&#039;t help the issue of the electorate not doing its damn job; if they&#039;ll elect Joe Biden to the Senate for a life-long sinecure, and then to the presidency, there&#039;s no way they&#039;ll be careful and attentive enough to prevent a group of &lt;i&gt;eminence grise&lt;/i&gt; types from working in the background through a succession of puppets. All you&#039;ve accomplished is to make it harder to work out what&#039;s going on.

Real cure? Fix the damn electorate and its lazy-ass ways. Term limits, tax base reduction plans, and world government ideas are all essentially swindles perpetrated by the grifters that want nothing but power. And, you only fix those grifters by taking away the power they seek such that they can&#039;t do anything other than work honestly for a living.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Can&#039;t think of a damn thing, but it has occasionally kept the international &quot;luvvies&quot; quiet...

Very rarely.

I think the 20th Century &quot;world government&quot; mindset is one that we&#039;re going to look back on and think &quot;What the hell were we thinking...?&quot;. Anything as big and all-encompassing as a &quot;world government&quot; is going to be inherently tyrannical and entirely impossible to control. You&#039;re always going to have insurrections against the center, and the whole thing is going to be horribly attractive to the despotic nutjobs of the human race. By the time we&#039;re mature enough to be able to manage a world-scale government, we&#039;re not gonna need the damn thing in the first place...

I think a world government is possible, but not with human beings as we are presently constituted, or with the numbers of us. There are too many inherent contradictions and conflicts baked in with our different cultures and mindsets, which are all adapted to local conditions. Imagine an Indonesian trying to tell an Inuit how to live his life...

That&#039;s why it will never, ever work.]]></description>
