A world Federation

There is always a tug of war going on about the importance of self vs the importance of the many. Capitalism and Socialism are two sides of the same coin. Capitalism is focuses on the individual while socialism focuses on the many.

The flaw of individualism is that it breeds selfishness and the less fortunate in a individualistic society are crushed underfoot by the wealthy. The flaw of a socialistic society is the overwhelming focus of the many over the one. This focus stifles and stagnates creativity. There is no push to excel, just to do well enough

The perfect society in my eyes is one that can focus on the self and the many. Where there is benefit to help the many and the one. 

This is the reason for a world federation. A world federation could address the needs of the many and the one. A united federation of world states could address their own internal issues while coming together to work on global problems. 

Global issues which fester like a infection now would be stamped out by cooperation. Pandemics, fugitives, kidnappings, world hunger, the ecosystem and other pains could be addressed by the entire world instead of years of bickering from sovereign states that result in nothing being done.

And the human atrocities would become a thing of the past. No more genocide, no more wars, no more oppression. Because every state would answer to every state.

But every state could have it's own say in it's territory as long as it doesn't harm one's human rights 

We need to become one people and still be one. This is not a contradiction. It's what will save us from ourselves.
