Yes, once again it has become time to shoulder the White Man's Burden!  Like
heroes of the past such as Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Napoleon, 
Queen Victoria, and Hitler, we will be able to imprint this world with our
ideals.

Seriously, the net effect of this stuff can be good or bad, but we have
too much federalism already.  While I would support a libertarian system
of world government, an authoritarian system of world government would be
far more likely.
