Such a system is nearly impossible to be sustainable. Look at the EU, which can barely hold itself up together and is in a constant state of crisis ever since 2008. On top of that, the EU is fortunate that most of the member states have somewhat similar value and culture systems so how would you expect a worldwide government to manage hundreds of different cultures and value systems in one state?

Still as an individual you do have more freedom and opportunities than ever before, even the worst wage slaves cannot compare to working conditions some people had only 70 years ago in Western nations. It's much more difficult to control people who have access to information so perhaps I wouldn't be so pessimistic.

The global banking elite as well as the US adverted that crisis the to the EU. It still held up and besides for the bias against saying the EU doesn't work the fact is, it works so well for us we don't even relasize it until we leave. Just look at the UK and there mess now. 

Question is, do you want to be stuck in this old paradigm where cycles of nations falling and new nations popping up to take there place or do you want to negate that. Do you want the east to destroy our way of life to make room for their own setting us back another few centuries in human compasion and "supposed" freedom or do you want to try and negate that, not by destroying them but merging with them?

The EU as an institution does not work well, just because it hasn't totally collapsed does not mean it is working well. Brexit can almost be considered a non-event in comparison to the crisises in Spain, Portugal, Greece and Italy along with the refugee crisis and that's just the tip of the iceberg. That has nothing to do with if you're pro or anti-EU, it has a lot of problems that cannot be dismissed, especially if you want this experiment to succeed.

Supranational units are no different, "empires" rise and fall just like nations, so would a one world government, it's not something you can negate. I'm not going to answer your question because it has nothing to do with my original post but since you bring it up, I have some questions for you. First, how do you propose that a one world government will have any interest in protecting your culture against larger and more dominate ones? Second of all, how does merging with a completely different culture not destory your current way of life?
