What kind of governmental, economic, and social structure would you have if you took over the world?

Question

I'd start with an oligarchy and when I had the whole world under my control I'd convert to a bureaucracy.

Answer 1

If I took over the world it would be a monarchy.

Answer 2

You would be MURDERED for you efforts.
You would have to become a TYRANT just to survive!
Power corrupts and total power begets total corruption.
Ideally, if you COULD succeed, you should disburse power as far and wide as possible so no single group could succumb to what our Founding Fathers knew was basic human nature. Lording their power over others!
They gave us a Constitution and a Bill of Rights that placed the power into the hands of the citizen.

GEE! Guess what, the IDEAL Government has already been established!
Too bad we have fallen prey to the specious arguments of crooked politicians and lawyers and are rejecting our responsibilities!
Lets just return to a responsible Government and a responsible, self-reliant citizenry that follows the CONSTITUTION.

Answer 3

Indian...........................they had the right idea no taxes, no nut houses, no orphans, clean air, and water respect for the earth, hey modernization and progress is killing us all even the planet.

Answer 4

A relatively benign monarchy. Do what I say and things will go along smoothly. If you don't, I will crush your rebellion mercilessly and disproportionately. Then we'll all go out for ice cream afterwards to smooth things over after I've devastated your region into nothing but radioactive dust... does that sound fair?

Answer 5

Puppets...
like Mr Rogers Neighborhood
real puppets....
not lickspittle lackey mouthpieces

Answer 6

"Naked Lady Land"

My personal dream world. Structure not necessary. I would not last long anyway, just indulgence to the death. Let the survivors figure it out.

Answer 7

you would fail miserably unless you addressed another important issue. the soviet union and the marxist thinking failed to provide the necessary motivation in the long run. better a benevolent king or dictator than a cold and efficient bureaucracy. you cannot forever beat subjects into cooperation. if you fail to somehow provide the correct motivation on an long term and evolving basis, you must fail.

Answer 8

I'd make the world capitalistic, without sanctions, install international debt forgiveness, and create a world wide union, and make everyone follow the Kyoto protocals for pollution, and outlaw dolphin and wale hunting.

Answer 9

one without bushes, cheneys, republicans and greedy corporations who outsource jobs. I'd also send everything made in china back to them and tell them the debt is cleared due to the attempted lead posining of our children.
