I don't think we will have much to do with one world anything other than 
perhaps a tool in making it happen in a quick manner as you say, a method 
of getting it to happen via our fall. World powers only stay as such for a 
term, history shows that, we are extremely fortunate to have  what we have 
and continue to have as we are still much better off than much of the 
world, it is because of that we feel it first too. But it is not permanent 
or a guarantee which folks naturally tend to think based off of our false 
sense of security and phantom patriotism. We here in Wisconsin and the 
Great Lakes Area are suffering from an unknown  virus in the  fish in which 
they are diseased and dying. Inland lakes as well as the Great Lakes. 
Watching how fast this is spreading over such great volumes of water, 
really wakens one up to see how our food chain could be poisoned, our water 
make non-potable and etc. We have very strange  and unheard of things 
occurring in recent years. We have ports being controlled by other 
countries, private  foreign countries buying our toll ways that were 
Federally run and operated,  did you know this administration is selling 
off, or at least if not yet sold, but is planning on selling off, our 
National Park lands to provide money to fix our roads? Something is 
definitely wrong here. Roads deteriorate everyday and will need to be 
redone again and again, selling land is permanent. We're selling the 
driveway to keep the car payment up. Lots of stuff that goes on we don't 
know about. The average American, bless their heart and mine too, much of 
the time, are so involved in our daily lives and goals, that we miss the 
knowledge and warning signs of our future, and yet there are so many fires 
out there we can't possibly keep an eye on them all. Which is why I think 
people just do not have the heart or will to group together like they use 
to. Where does one start?  The blind have grouped together in the past 
because of desperation and a clear goal and outline of the fire, that is 
human nature, the question is, how far away is desperation for us, and will 
it be too late to do anything about it? And will our attempts be  equal to 
protecting our sand castle with a dike as the approaching tide rolls in. 
Depressing me out now lol. I feel I'm pointing out the blatantly obvious. I 
do not like doom and gloom, which I feel I appear here, but one can't fix 
something if you don't realize the problem either. No room for Ostriches 
here? :)
