it's not that one world government is bad (and i'm frequently disappointed with people who can only see it as such), it's that the type of government is of primary importance. there isn't one government in the whole of the world which i would consider beneficial to spread throughout, but that doesn't mean that such a beneficial government type can not exist. in some ways, if the population stays at or near its present size (or larger) some form of united government is nearly necessary -- separated governments really only work well when populations are also separated.

but those persons/entities which have been most busily involved in the governmental process have been exactly the entities which believe, to varying degrees of alignment, with control-based societies. and in the worst cases, those people have been involved in half-hidden activities which seek to spread a control-based government throughout the world... what we need, assuming that none of the 2012ish predictions come about in any way like they're being prophecied, is a "government" which unites whole continents -- if not the whole world -- in a way which is totally sans control dynamics (basically not gonna happen so long as strong sts people excercise their control muscles). the only alternative, as i see things, is a tribal-structure world of small communities but this is impractical/impossible with anywhere near present population sizes. in a way, we need this dimensional shift; in its place, at the least, we need a major shift away from control-centric society models.

in short, one world government is not inherently evil, just like government, capitalism, socialism, expansionism are not necessarily evil... it is a matter of how they are used/implemented. there's more i want to say which is related to this topic, but i'm not totally sure if it's appropriate so i'll hold my tongue :d
