Don't you agree that we are all part of one big community ( the world is getting smaller with faster flights and the internet) don't you agree that we are all responsible for our (global city)?

I don't.\nI give in my virtual life as much as I give in my real life. I am same person online and in 3D world. And, truly, it is the same world, just shrinked the distancy between here and there... Here there is no here and there anymore... All of us are here, coz that here is everywhere.

still waiting on it, but personally i think the next invention ( be it what ever it may be ) will further insulate society from one another like the current state of connectivity does right now. interesting isn't he, he we are on this board posting replies, when we could be outside... connecting.. with people.. and not text..

For all of America's weath and influence, for all of its powerful media, we are surprisingly isolated from the world.  What's more, we are still very slowing climbing out of the cultural muck that has allowed many of us to believe we are literally superior to the rest of the world.\n\nAmerica continues to behave arrogantly to the world, insisting we always know best, and our interests should be always honored.  It has done a great deal of harm to us the past 15 year in my opinion.\n\nIf only some of us could see ourselves in the eyes of those around us in the world.  Of course, most of us are so conceited and self-involved that we couldn't care less.

Actually, as I understand, there is no more first, second, and third worlds. \nThere is the 'developed' world and the 'developing world'.

What we have here is a false dichotomy. There is no reason why we can't do BOTH. I see both those next door and those in the next continent as my neighbors. I care for both equally. Too often we value the lives of our own countrymen more than those who are not. I think that's wrong. There is absolutely no reason why anyone on this planet need go hungry. The earth produces FOUR TIMES the amount of food necessary to feed every individual on this planet. The fact that there are starving people anywhere can mostly be blamed on greed and misplaced priorities on the part of world governments. If we work to solve the problems of the poorest among the human population, we will simultaneously improve conditions for those in more affluent places like the USA, Britain, UAE, etc. The average person in these affluent countries throws away more nutritious food than the average person in a third world country receives as food. It's this sort of thing that we need to change in order to feed the hungry here and elsewhere.

This is a little off subject but reminds me of a conversation I had a few days ago. In that conversation, I was saying that I truly believe ppl alive today are living in the 'best of times'.\n\nWhy do I believe this? Because we have all the commodities of oil products such as plastic etc... making for a lot of luxury and the fact that we are not quite yet completely controlled by big brother. That day is coming sooner than ppl realize.

We have given more to the world than any nation on Earth. Our people have sacrificed themselves all over the world, we give money and aid to everyone. We are the place people are trying to get into from all over the world. Yes I am proud to be an American.

Ever heard the phrase "Power of One"?  If each one of us voices are opinion strong enough to be heard either voicing it in public, on-line etc... if each of us would come together and work as a single unit a team and all of us stands together we would have a chance to turn the tables.  \nRemember if United We Stand, the reverse is also true, United we can Fall too.

It already is.  As they are much more subtle than we, it does not look like much, unless you look closely as you have.  They have been buying up parts of the US, Africa, the Pacific Rim,  and negotiating deals all over the world as well.  The have invested heavily in education while our kids can't compete with Rwanda in math and science.  AS the world goes digital, and international conglomeration of business is nearly complete, people in our society will find they cannot compete, lacking even the basics in education.  I think we may well wake up one morning to find we have fallen way behind, and discover we have become a third world nation.

More people need to realize this.  We are all a part of God, therefore we are all Gods and we are all connected.  We are all co-creators of reality.

Yes..we will see these cities and towns all across America adopting similar action. America wants to be a lawful society and we are seeing that it happens.
