Now it is finally time to talk about the new World Federation that globanomics proposes. Some may think that the globanomic proposal is unfair and controversial, but i say throw away that kind of thought. Although i do believe a Constitutional Committee should be put together to establish the working parameters of the new World Federation, i also believe that the globanomic outline as to how the new World Federation will work is the most optimal approach for world operations. It may seem like i am giving the United States too much power in how the World Federation works, but i again say forget that concern. Mathematically, the globanomic proposal will produce the most optimal outcome for the "entire world", including the U.S., China, Europe, etc.

To improve global efficiencies globanomics proposes that a World Federation be created using the United States’ democratic form of government as a template. The proposed World Federation would contain at a minimum—the following:
- A mission statement setting out the founding principles of globanomics (i.e., love, do no harm, freedom, happiness, etc.).
- A Constitution.
- Three co-equal branches of government: (1) an executive branch; (2) a legislative branch with two parliamentary houses; and (3) a judicial branch.
- A Chairman (President) and a Vice-Chairman.
- Executive departments or agencies (e.g., Food, Water, Housing, Commerce, etc.) covering the needs that are reflective of the National Hierarchy of Needs.
- A central location for operations (e.g., Pacific coast in California) owned solely by the World Federation. If other lands are used for “branch operations” then the World Federation should own that land, too.
- Its own currency, the Federation “fondue”, which can be exchanged with all other world currencies.
Creating a new World Federation is a big effort, but one that is needed to improve global efficiencies. No one said that doing something good did not take work. Keep that in mind as I explain more about each of the points above. I assume there will be many issues that will pop up as the World Federation is created that are beyond the scope of my broad outline. I assume those issues will be managed by those who are given the responsibility to make the World Federation work (i.e., the Chairman, the two Houses, and the World Supreme Court). All I am doing at this point is laying out the “general” requirements, not the “detail” requirements. The details are best left for those people who have a thorough understanding for the in-depth rationale of the “template” (i.e., U.S. Constitution) used to govern. It’s for some Constitutional Committee, consisting of an appropriate balance of “power players” to shape the new World Federation Constitution.
Today, we will discuss the first two of the above bullet points—the mission statement and the Constitution.
Mission Statement
Globanomics provides the principles and philosophical position for the mission statement of the World Federation. Those principles and foundation were presented in the Chapter on Globanomics in this book. The mission statement should include a purpose, but it should also claim several things that are “self-evident” and “intuitive” in nature for humankind, which includes do no harm, ethic of reciprocity, love is the highest knowledge, freedom over subjugation, no military war, etc. Everything pertaining to the principles of globanomics must be included at a minimum within the mission statement in some form. Additional principles, not initially identified within the framework of globanomics, can be added to the mission statement, but nothing should be added that reduces the meaning behind those principles that have already been presented herein.
The development of the mission statement for the World Federation must come from the activities of the Constitutional Committee that is responsible for the World Federation Constitution.
Constitution
The Constitution of the World Federation must lay out the “how and wherefore”, “responsibilities”, and “mode of operation” for all levels of the World Federation. The Constitution can be amended—although with appropriate constraints. The Constitution should be developed by an appropriate group of professionals assigned to the task.
Now here is how I believe the Constitutional Committee should be constructed, which brings us back to the findings from the previous chapter on the EGSB. The United States is the leader in the World Federation for the reasons addressed in the previous chapter. The United States, who can be credited with the creation of 49.99% of the world’s business activity, should have a 49.99% voting privilege on issues that matter.
There are two places where this 49.99% rule should be applied. The first is in the formation of the World Federation Constitutional Committee—the United States should have 49% representation on the Constitutional Committee. These members should bring with them the most knowledge regarding the U.S. template that is being used and how it can be converted into addressing global (not national) concerns. The rest of the Constitutional Committee should consist of national members based upon their prorated share from the EGSB. For example, if Japan accounts for 6% of the world’s business activity, Japan should have approximately 6% of the membership input on the World Federation Constitutional Committee. Nations that operate as a collective (e.g., European Union) can pro-rate their members to the Committee based upon national contributions or they can simply select based upon the collective.
The Constitutional Committee must obtain a 100% acceptance of its members prior to the formal approval of the mission and the World Constitution.
How can the world's countries ever agree to anything, let alone creating a World Federation? Especially one where the US controls so much of it. Other countries would never agree.
Just wait and see.
I hope you are right - it is a nice idea.
