Do you believe that the world should be made up of:

A) Sovereign countries

B) One World Government

C) Collection of non-sovereign countries but without a central governance

A thread earlier today got me thinking about this and I would like to get your opinions.

Thank you for participating.

Other: Sovereign individuals who are free to "opt-in" to voluntary sovereign nations or other political arrangements if they want to.

^^ Voluntary is key, and I generally think that smaller and more localized arrangements are better.

Unfortunately most people are collectivists and vote with their animal instincts - Ben Franklin was right. Once people can vote themselves into financial gain, the free Republic dies.

Things will get much, MUCH worse before any sort of enlightment re-occurs.

Definitely, they should maintain it. The War of Independence should've never happened because it didn't allow the British to maintain their sovereignty.

I agree. Were it not for that silly war, we would probably have money that's worth at least Continental.

There's a contradiction between the thread title and the survey.

The thread title mentions individual sovereignty. But the survey doesn't mention it. Where's the option for individual sovereignty?

I have 2 views. I voted " Sovereign countries ", and for now I would like to maintain that.

I oppose "One World Government" because of what shape that would take presently.

Now, I also have other beliefs based on my Faith. I believe that one day there will be a Theocracy. But not a man made Theocracy.
Though I would oppose a Man Made One World Government, I would accept the Creator ruling the earth personally.

For the time being, I would like to see the US maintain it's sovereignty and disentangle itself from other sovereign nations.
