There are some problems to solve.
Competition for economic and military power between countries guarantees the destruction of humanity.
Internal democracy, REAL democracy that means something, gives people powerful votes that politicians can't ignore. I know people will vote for higher taxes and for hardship for themselves if the KNOW it's essential.
Problems like global warming can be solved in that way or by police and military force. Or of course it might not be solved.
I'm choosing. Democratic action and self imposed discipline to reverse climate change.
Most of the other "too hard" topics could be tackled the same way.
Of course we need a DEMOCRATIC world government, a subject just too hard to think about until the last few years. One vote one country isn't democratic at all. We need a forum that brings the real world to the table.
