What if...

Ok, bear with me here.

Imagine a world where everyone is held to a higher standard. Every man and woman looks out for one another, simply for the greater good of every other person; every child is taught to value everything about a person, and are swayed from common hypocrisies in favor of focus on variation as a positive.

We would combine the world into one nation, by the people of Earth, for the people of Earth, and the World is regulated by a government that receives no pay. Everyone is allowed to vote on all bills, on every single election. This leaves less room for corruption and enables the people to directly affect their world. The ability to vote on such issues is made easily accessible, so that anyone may vote publicly or privately, based on preference, through public stations or wristwatch-like devices. Both test for DNA authenticity, as well as other factors of identification, in order to vote effectively. There would be little need to rig or sway political elections, as the politicians would have notably less power and would lack paychecks. These people would lead out of sheer recognition of the need for a leader, which would lead to highly intelligent representatives. There would be no parties; this only distracts from the traits of the individual, who would be held to the highest standards.

All healthcare in this world would be provided at legitimate prices, without overinflated "bs" to overcharge customers. With increases in technological advancement, the jobs of doctors and medical professionals will become less strenuous, and therefore this would be possible.

 Education would be viewed as the priority; children would be placed according to their likes and dislikes, and would be set on a track towards improving their happiness over a lifetime, contrary to the system today in which many see their happiest days as kids and teenagers. So many more things could be achieved, if only we had the desire, and we would fight for it (verbally of course).

I can foresee all of these things happening fairly soon. Their limitations will become irrelevant in the near future due to advances in technology, and the opportunity for worldwide happiness will be on the horizon. Will we take that chance? Who knows. But I can tell you one thing: If we don't stop forcing people to jump on the bandwagon, or we don't stop treating others as though they are merely here to hinder our success, we won't make it to this future. Just some food for thought, I may be ranting, but I just had a vision of such a bright future that I thought I would share it.
