Well the hate wells up from desire, and the desire to prove yourself better than the man next to you leads to progress. In a world where there was no conflict or greed or hate we'd be stuck in a constant present. We would never push forward because there is no reason to.
I completely agree with this, conflict breeds a better tomorrow. With out it we'd be stuck in a present that never moved foward because everyone would agree. You can't get any new ideas that way.
And that list Firey penguin posted is half communism, the other half is the shared goals of the governments of the world.
most people share the same goals, democrats and republicans, democracy and dictatorships. The difference is in how we achieve these goals, and what means justify the end.
What kind of world would it be where you were told that your family could only be so big? or that you'd have to wait in line to have a chld. That you couldn't have "X" job because that isn't productive to society. And why would I care about this society, what would be the point? The idea of patroitism isn't enough t cause me to break my back at work. I'd only do it if there was something in it for me, or if I was doing it for my family.
That is why americans are so patriotic, because it is a free country where you are entitled to whatever you work for, your harvest belongs to you, not the government.
And as for a world court, that is absurd. People in different parts of the world have different beliefs. It'd be offensive to everyone if they'd all have to abide by different peoples laws. To many customs and traditions are held close to peoples hearts to give them up for a law that previously didn't affect them, and was created for another part of the world.
