Paradise On Earth, World As A Single Egalitarian Family Options

I believe that...It is possible to create a harmonious heavenly life on earth if we take following steps :-
(i) A prayer hall & a meditation centre in every 10 KMs radius area
(ii) School curriculam to be such that students rise above regional, linguistic, racial, religious, political, communal / caste and gender barriers
(iii) A world government
(iv) To convert existing armies into police force
(v) To dump all weaponries
(vi) To ensure food, clothing and housing for all
(vii) De-centralization of all powers
(viii) Free medical care for all
(ix) Emphasis on holistic life.

Durki, I think you might find people more willing to enter into discussion if you present your ideas in less of a dogmatic way. As a guide you will see that I have added 3 magic words in bold to the start of this post. - Mediocracy

Hello Durki,

I don't know if I would consider any democracy ideal, here is why... Within a democracy (in the truest sense) you essentially have the unwashed masses calling the shots. Problems arise from this type of government because at some point mob mentality will set in. Decisions will begin to be made based on emotion. Then you get riots and other social upheaval when things go against the beliefs of opposing groups. The democratic republic was devised in order to prevent this. Exactly how successful were they? For the sake of brevity I won't go into this to deeply and only say that there are still major problems. As far as having a party less democracy (I assume you speak of a democratic republic), I fail to see how the lack of parties would make things better. Could you elaborate? Also, you said:

De-centralization will extend upto grass-roots level.

I don't understand. Is the grass-roots level not decentralized by definition?

I'm not offended, I just disagree. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/fie.gif)
