when we erase borders and, sharing everything,
live for the sake of others."
It is not a big jump from a nation like the United States or Europe to a world government. The only difference is scale. Throughout history, From Alexander to Napoleon great personalities have gone to great pain to realize an ideal of unified government. It has never worked, not so much for lack of effort, or even opposition; but for a unifying system of communication and “cultural” adhesive.
In this day and age we not only have instant communication on every level from the individual through to trans-governmental bodies; but we also have a unifying system of “culture”: Hollywood: movies, TV, video, "the pop culture", etc. and the Dollar (substitute EU if you like) a universal currency/financial system.
It, then, is only a matter of time before the present governmental bodies become superfluous.
