As naive and idealistic as I thought the idea was at the time it seems like the world has gone out of its way to make it a necessity.

It's as bound to be ironic as what you'd expect from a corny sci fi

The seeds of peace need to be planted, and nurtured. There is no harm in aspiration. imho.

And what would that do, exactly? Sounds like a gimmick to collect tax dollars.

It is time for a paradigm shift regarding violence (war) as a means of solving problems. At the end of the day, in order to leave in peace, we must make agreements, concessions, compromises. Why not do this, BEFORE there are lives lost to war or physical conflict?
