A world government is needed to put order in the world against irresponsible possession of nuclear weapons, trade agreements and protection of culture.

No. We can't even get along in the US, despite 230 years of trying. We sure as heck cannot get along with half the world.
So, the idea that everyone in the world would agree to all follow a single government is so far beyond likely as to be fantasy.
Look at it this way. In any world-wide government (assuming some form form of democratic republic) the collective decision making of China and India will decide almost any issue.
How many Americans do you think would go for that -- being just 5% of the worldwide population and thus massively in the minority.

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!!!!!!!
What you speak of is Communism, pure and simple.
There are NO pros.
There are NO cons.
There is only the possibility of slavery and a micro chipped populace.
Study what has been done in China and Korea.
Study the past 30 years of the lives of Russian people.
No individualism.
Read "1984".
Read "we"
Read "Brave New World"
Read "The Handmaid's Tale"
You will then understand just how repulsive the whole idea is.
Communism is a plan designed to make everyone equal and to give power to the average working man. A German philosopher, Karl Marx, explained his idea of communism in the early 1800's. He said that it was unfair for some people to be rich and for others to be poor. He said that the only way to change that was to get rid of private ownership of property. So, in his theory of communism, everyone owned everything together. This is totally NOT what the NWO has in mind. They want to own everything including our souls. They want us beholden to them for everything. They want us micro-chipped in a cashless society.
There was great violence and the hardships in Russia during communist rule. They also remember the fear of a communist attack that many Americans felt. These people are remembering what happened when communism was put into practice. Lenin, a Russian dictator, established rule by the Communist Party in Russia in the early 1900's. In Communist Russia, people had very little freedom. People were forced to do the work that the government dictated, and violence against Russian citizens became common. Russian citizens also became very poor under communist rule..
This was a failed experiment for the N W O that they speak of.
Do you really want this?

I agree with the others. It would not be a good idea. Just having the thought that which government would you choose. Our cultures are so vastly different and what is right in our country would be unacceptable in another.
Consider where the US is in the scope of world population. As another person mentioned, the majority of people in other areas of the globe with other cultures would shape the decisions.

no wayyy. first of all, every country has different needs, different expenses, different beliefs. if there were to be one single government it would be a complete disaster. the election would be controversial, how can one group of people rule a WORLD? an entire country is hard enough. plus how would we decide if it would be communist, a monarchy, of democratic. i think it would basically cause a war against everyone trying to figure out how to make it work. this is just a down-right dumb question, lol sorry.

Too many cultures and too many different ideas about what government should be. The UN can't seem to make countries behave and it is the closest to a world government. So, no I don't think so.

Well, first 3 issues that come to mind are:
1 - Who would run this gov't?
2 - How would you get *everyone* to agree on an election or selection process?
3 - Human nature prohibits such cooperation.

Wouldn't that make all the lives that were lost during the American Revolution a mockery. Those men died for our freedom so we wouldn't have to answer to any other country or king or queen. I say we stay were we are and honor those men on July 4th.

No I don't see any pros for the USA. The cons would be that we would have to spend even more of our wealth supporting people that hate us for doing it.

NEVER!
One world government would destroy the meaning of democracy.
There are no cons...
