I saw it on a show called the power of ten and thought it was a good question.

Not sure, though I'd bet there would be alot of "upset" people to say the least.

Power of Ten is a great show, what were the results on that question?

No way should any country have control over the entire planet.

So very true. Even worse if it was the USA.

30% That's a pretty big number :(

Yes, at least not in it's current political state. If there ever is a world government then it should be run by a parliament with members from each country having equal power, be it Monaco or Russia.

We can barely maintain what we have as it is, let alone the whole world!

Though there would be some heavy resistance from many countries before that would happen, and at best, it would probably end up like the UN or something. :?

It will happen evidentially, the question is will it happen before we annihilate each other.

Thats not fair. Larger countries should have more votes then smaller ones, otherwise larger ones like USA could just split each state into a country and have 52 votes rather then 1.

52 states...The USA could just "disband" and make each state a "country" so then each state has 1 vote each as they are now countries, meaning that what used to be USA now has 52 votes rather then just the 1.

that is why we have 2 sections of congress in the senate there are 2 senators for every state, in the house of representatives there are 435 representatives plus 4 Delegates and 1 Resident Commissioner that are based on percentages of population. so the small states get more power in the senate and the large states get more power in the house. but that is how it originally was intened now it is just politics and you could vote against a fellow state member to gain power for the political party

I voted no

I love the fact that it asks for only Americans to vote and then has an option for "I'm not an American".

If the do that they would loose their power, there will simply be 52 small votes each on their own.

BTW 52?
