World Corporation

This book was written more than 100 years ago and envisioned a universe completely run by a single world corporation. The author was a naive idealist who had no concept of actual human behavior. He describes a world where all competition is eliminated and every human in the world would conform to the rules of the corporation. He just assumed his ideals would be followed with no power struggle, no politics, no envy, no disputes, which completely flies in the face of all human history. Obviously nothing has come of his ideas but it just shows that even 100 years ago people longed for a world where everything was "made to be equal" and somehow by magic no human would rock the boat and disrupt Utopia. At the present time the fairest system in the world is one in which everyone has equal opportunity, is treated equally under the law and achieves happiness by their own merits through a free society. Every time a government, corporation, or other body of power decides how to make outcomes equal and fair for all people regardless of their efforts and abilities, chaos erupts and no one benefits.
