Soon, small countries will be on the scale of wal-mart (everyone knows it's a country). Which brings a lot of bad but good. In my opinion, if we could business-ize all parts of the world on a much lager scale then it is today (such as the future) and impliment a mass government, i'm sure everyone will be 100-150 years old, and make 100,000 easily. The new 40 is 30, and the new 50 is 40.

This was very interesting Jesda, nicely done. Technology, importing and exporting, and working together, has made this possible. Now we all have to get along, but I can't even do that in my own country, much less with a person that doesn't speak my language, or have the same qualities (charastics, and habits) as myself.

I had to lol in the first couple seconds with the guy with black hair and bald on top, had a little patch of hair in a random spot.

I thought it was interseting as well. Didn't quite take in the cool accent. World peace unfortunately will never happen. Also, everybody can't be rich. We see exactly what happens in the US with greedy politicians and inflation and with people that always want more money or can't share the wealth. And even distrubution between poor, middle class, and rich, is key to a evenly growing economy/civilization. I still think we humans will destroy ourselves.

The only way everyone can be rich is if the concept of currency exchange is abolished and hyper-intelligent AI systems run everything. And I don't see a utopia happening anytime this millennium. That premise is also at the heart of my favorite Sci-Fi series...
The only way world peace will happen is when the human race is down to one individual.
