...try to take over the world!

Assuming you are bill gates and have near unlimited funds to work with can any of you think of a full proof or near that method for taking over the world? Or if ya think ya can come up wif out without the need for money all the better. Does anyone think its even possible to undertake such a task. After thinking about it i dont think it would be workable unless you had a truly limitless supply of money. Cause just about every society on the plant would revolt at the thought of having one far away central leader. So unless you got your legion of warrior drones on everyones doorstep all you could really cause is chaos… but i would like somone to show me otherwise.

I’ve pondered plans on world domination for too long. And I have a lot of great ideas. But I’ve matured since then. If I were to put my sick plans out there, people will think that I’m still thinking of doing such things. When I’m not. World domination isn’t feasible anymore, unless you are the pope.

The best way to take over the world is by making yourself to be Christ re-incarnate and convince a lot of people. They’ll do anything for you.

Reminds me of Napoleon…

“Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet.”
Napoleon Bonaparte

Frighter,
Bill Gates doesn’t have near unlimited funds. Often there is a huge misconception surrounding people like Mr. Gates and Mr. Trump - when stats about their wealth go out, once must read the fine print and remember that’s its what they are estimated to be worth. This means that if everything of their could be sold off this instant, theoretically that is how much they would have in the bank. But there is very little certainty or solidity of worth when it comes to business. Mr. Trump was actually in hundrends of millions of dollars at one point, actually I think it might have been a billion. All this because of business flaws of numerous kinds.

Secondly, money won’t get you world domination, though money is a factor. You must have numerous advantages over many others. Things like looks, connections, power, smarts, wit, keen eye, able to predict a situation before it happens, ability to control and manipulate people, know psychology of people as well as the economy and politics. Just to name a few.

Thirdly, what in the name of God do you mean ‘rule the world’? Do you mean, be the one who has the greatest investments in the most business’, or the ability to manipulate politician to do what you want, or to be called a ‘President’ of the world or something, what? Remember, that no president actually rules the country. The country is rules my society’s morales, etiquette, law, police, lawyers, and judges…sure a president has a little bit of effect on all of these - but he doesn’t rule in the sense that he does whatever he wants or that we must do as s/he says. Presidents are under strict guidelines, more strict than any average citizen. So if you think you lack freedom, try being a president for a week.

You can’t dominate or rule a world entirely. Just as you can’t even rule yourself entirely. There are always things that are outside of your power, and things will always be surprising you sooner or later.

World domination is a feeble and fictionized idea, world change on the other hand is a noble cause (assuming you want to change it for the better).

What’s your take?

So… what your saying is my question is ill-posed and irrelevent… perhaps uninteresting? :laughing:
