Unless we are able to reverse the global trend of ecological decline soon our planet is in danger of turning into a barren wasteland where only microorganisms thrive. HALTING THE HUMAN POPULATION GROWTH tag:archania.org,2011:http://www.archania.org/index.php?page=new_world_government#cyan 2011-11-17T17:03:49Z Humanity is currently consuming about 50% more resources than this planet can regenerate. As this is not sustainable in a long term perspective we must strive to control the population growth. The most benevolent way to decrease the amount of people is by strict birth control. AN EGALITARIAN STEADY STATE ECONOMY tag:archania.org,2011:http://www.archania.org/index.php?page=new_world_government#green 2012-01-20T15:06:28Z Everlasting economic growth on a planet with finite resources is impossible and the quality of life stops to increase with increasing wealth when people have their basic needs satisfied. We should therefore aim for an egalitarian steady state economy that fulfills the basic needs of humanity. A WORLD WITHOUT NATIONAL BORDERS tag:archania.org,2011:http://www.archania.org/index.php?page=new_world_government#yellow 2011-11-17T16:34:15Z It is completely unfair that individuals have different rights just because they are born in different countries. Geographical segregation isn't any more justifiable than racial segregation. Rather than being given a national citizenship people should be given a global citizenship. PUNITIVE TAXES ON UNHEALTHY FOOD tag:archania.org,2011:http://www.archania.org/index.php?page=new_world_government#orange 2011-09-19T07:38:05Z Obesity, dementia, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases are to a large degree caused by malnutrition. Food containing high amounts of easily digestible starches, trans fats or saturated fats should be heavily taxed in order to prevent people from acquiring such lifestyle diseases. A DRUG POLICY BASED UPON SCIENCE tag:archania.org,2011:http://www.archania.org/index.php?page=new_world_government#red 2012-01-28T15:32:09Z Most of the experts in drug abuse claim that alcohol and tobacco are at least as deteriorating to our health and to our society as marijuana and magic mushrooms. Instead of having a drug policy based on cultural bias we should have a drug policy based on scientific research. ONLY GENIUSES ARE SUITED TO GOVERN tag:archania.org,2011:http://www.archania.org/index.php?page=new_world_government#magenta 2011-11-17T15:41:39Z Government candidates should be evaluated by science, history and intelligence tests. Only the candidates with outstanding scores on these tests should be allowed to work in the government, as they are most likely to make the best choices for the global community we live in.
