Plainly, all governments combined into one. I know that is very general, but try your best.

And I'm not talking about a evil dictatorship, or anything like that. It might be a "voice to the people" Republic but one that rules every nation and landmass on the planet.

A few thoughts:
r1b1c*: No borders certainly does not mean no wars. Ever heard of civil war? Wars are fought between groups of people, it doesn't have to be separate countries.
rssr27: It wouldn't have to be a dictatorship. There are plenty of other possibilities. Secondly, the United States was very much NOT supposed to be led by majority rule. That would be a democracy and the founding fathers specifically formed the USA as a REPUBLIC. The Constitution has several points about that. Majority rule would never work as it would put one group in absolute power and all others with absolutely no power.
And lastly, I am not for a one-world government. In fact, I think it would be a horrible idea. I just want to hear your opinions.

That is a good goal. One would start with the European Union model of little by little, a lot of preparations before a participant country is accepted. I would not rule out an eventual federated world government. It would take a long time, a lot of effort, a lot of education of the world citizens.
I would not rule out experimentation with the human genes to run parallel in time to see if the human gene could be successfully changed to make the human animal less violent.
Scientific experiments are what they are. Careful, limited, repeated, supervised and open to all scientists.

With all the different cultures and people in this world, that "One Government" thing would not work. Here in the USA 50 States all have different rules,laws and what not.., and what about all the different cultures? What is OK for one is a crime to others. One Government would cause total chaos. Isn't the United Nations based on that simple thought?
Does it work?

I don't think the one world government is all that far away. If you consider the financial system as the tie between all countries. We already have word trade org, world health and a world court in place. Many others I'm sure. They may not be at full power but the structure is there. Now all they need is something to pull them all together, like a world financial crisis. I personally don't care. I don't feel it will make a difference.

Although the current administration is the most corrupt government in the world, hopefully the fact that with our constitution we will finaly overcome this bitter period of life.
I think that if we actually let the US Constitution alone, we would regain our wealth and strenght and other countries might want to join the United States of America.
Then perhaps it could be renamed something like the United States of Earth.
But not in your lifetime.

No, a one world government would be, without any doubt, by necessity a dictatorship.
A government where the people control by majority rule, does not exist and is no more than a myth.
The government of the United States was supposed to be such, but here again, it's but a distant dream.

Sure if I were King and the universal governemnt were dissolved upon my death... seriously:
no, I think the diversity in the world, including different governements, adds to the human experience. One government would concentrate corrupting power in too few people.
It might be good if some associations and treaties such as ones related to global warming and arms proliferation were stronger, but competition between various groups is how evolution of species and societies work.

No way! Until people start respecting each other as human beings, requiring that we all follow the same guidelines would be a disaster. You can't trust anyone, in any country, enough to work together to make a strongly united government. We would end up with a civil war to end all wars...literally!

No! It would never work! It would breed more corruption and resentment, who would get a say in how things are runned in THE WORLD! Just the developed nations, hardly democratic! Each part of the world is different and when we embrace differences and not try to impose one set of standards on everybody, even under the best system politics is a dirty war of interests.

The idea of a one-world government is EXACTLY what the Shrub gang and other political top dogs WANT. It's part of the New World Order plan, to strip us ALL of our rights and privileges. YES, IT IS A DICTATORSHIP. You're delusional if you think otherwise. And NO, I would NEVER be in favor of such a "government."

No.
It would only lead to two things. Very, very rich people - not many. And a lot of poor people.
If our govt (which despite many things is still one of the best) can't manage things properly in the US can you image if it was bigger and had to service even more people. Chaos doesn't even come close to what we would have. Life would really suck to be slaves of giant multinational corporations that would control the govt anyway. Plus if you think Bush, the decider is something, can you imagine what this idiot would be like running everything.
