One big world government...no remnants of different desires, different cultures. We must all be under one governance.

I had a professor that pointed out the difference between travel and tourism. People who travel want to go somewhere else to experience, and enjoy, the wonderful differences between people and their cultures. People who tour want to go somewhere else to experience what they experience at home.
In simpler terms, when you travel, do you look for the McDonald's, or do you try the native foods?
gannonfan apparently believes that being governed by your oppressive neighbor is a good thing. A Big Mac is a wonderful advancement for the human race.
BTW, what sound does a sheep make?

You got all that out of GF's post?

Gannonfan apparently believes it is important that different people and cultures don't govern themselves. The world needs unity...one government.
Otherwise, there would be no reason that Scotland could not govern themselves.
