Who's your daddy?

Before you buy into the concept of a one world government, better check the fine print. Remember that constitutions and laws are social contracts which obligate you and the government. Unfortunately, the government usually has more resources and power than you do, so the contract often has a degree of unequality to it, which is compensated for in the US by a system of courts and a set of limitations that we impose on the way the government gets its information about us.

Any one world government would place a new layer of laws over you. If the laws are to your liking, then OK, but how will you prevent laws that are not in your best interest from being enacted? In the current world environment, you could just go to a country that has laws most in keeping with your personal philosophy, but in a one world government that would be impossible. Science fiction writers have had a field day with the oppressive one world government for at least 100 years.

Always remember that an entity that can give you rights can also take them away. Under the US social contract, we have unalienable rights (life, liberty, pursuit of happiness) and we give power to the government, not the other way around. All Americans should be highly vigilant for any attempt to reverse this arrow of legitimate power, even if it seems to be for a good cause. Good causes can be supported by good people exercising their freedoms. We also have a social contract with each other, which, although not as well spelled out, pretty much is the same thing: no individual has the right to take from another his or her life, liberty, property, or pursuit of happiness. You have the right to defend your rights.

When we give power to the government, we are saying "We voluntarily reduce our rights to create more uniformity or order in society". We must be very careful about what we ask our government to do and never confuse the fact that we are doing this to ourselves.
