Why isn’t it easy to have peace?

There are four words that can explain pretty much all of the disagreement in the world, and therefore the biggest part of the lack of peace. Those words are; the distribution of resources. In a world without limits on the supply of resources, there wouldn’t of course be any problem at all for us to deal with in this perspective, we would have everything everyone needed and wanted in terms of material things. As we don’t, who gets what will always be the ultimate challenge.

I am mainly focusing on the global distribution, who gets what when it comes to water, food, other well-being necessities and everything above the basic need? We all know that in our time, this seems unfairly done. Some countries do not have water while others suffers from sicknesses because of having too much of the worlds gifts. But then, who is to decide what new rules and distribution standards should be applied? As we already have a system, it would be an overwhelmingly complex thing to set an actual way of global distribution based on the average values of the human race. Not only that everybody’s opinion would have to be secured, but to make a compromise in combining all those thoughts, ideas and ideals seems impossible. So instead we continue to use groups, like countries, communities, and so on. We are placing larger amounts of people into groups and then continually in a group somewhat decide what the best interest of that separate group is, using representative leadership which is backed up by a majority. Now, the distribution depends on what potential resources the countries have, and how good and effective they are at extracting them. It is the easiest thing to understand that we become divided instead of one world unit here. That is one reason of the “unfair” distribution. Another thing is ignorance. Even if you really think it should be a fairer world, you aren’t voting for a world community, at the top level for your country. This leads to that you fool yourself to not care how much we help other countries and communities, because we narrow our focus. Of course there is foreign aid and likewise, but I think that this attempt to even out the possessions wouldn’t even exist if the whole humanity had a common ruling. It’s easy to say now of course, that if that was the case we would be better off in the hard task of distribution. But I say that it would still be beneficial to try to work get a common ruling for the world. I’m not talking about global organizations like the UN, I mean a world government. If we could achieve this fundamentally huge change in our system, the number one task we have to face in order to maintain peace, the distribution of resources, would be so much easier.
