As intergovernmental structures and nation states have failed time and again to solve the economic crisis, is it now time to consider global democracy and a World Parliament?

Oh right. Problem, reaction, solution. The EU is a dictatorship and you want global governance? It will never be time for a one world government.

Yes, if indeed said government is a post-capitalist, egalitarian, equalitarian, highly decentralised and ultimately participatory democracy.No, if it in any way resembles any of our current 'democracies', including, but obviously not limited to, the EU itself. Which however is proposed herein? Quite obviously the latter; ergo, the answer is no.

No. Big is not beautiful. Big is not economical. Big cannot exist without total control.
