The future depends more on world unity and not just nationalistic pride. America is too nationalistic and not enough with international unity. Being a superpower, we think of our nation as God's nation and I think that's wrong. We are the United States of Earth, not just the United States of America. We need to get less involved with protecting other nations and start looking at our country in the mirror. We have to look beyond our nation's borders.
We have to become a nation of humility. There's a term known as ethnocentrism. That means you believe your country is better than everybody else. In order for humanity to get better, we have to think internationalistic in order to fight of problems such as pollution, disease, hunger and homelessness.
However, there are signs that things are improving. There is less poverty in the world than there was since the 1980s. More markets are emerging around the world. Ozone depletion is less of a problem now than the 1990s.
