Why should the US have any input into a democratic world government with principles of justice and liberty when they can barely live up to those principles written into their own constitution?

(and a thousand other urls on this Act.)

I can think of a few hundred other reasons, not the least of which the poor environmental record, abuse of human rights, inability to obey international law and a legal system which rewards stupidity and irresponsible behavior.

Personally, I believe modern Europe is a far better model for a world government.
