The Most Powerful Force in the World
What is the most powerful force in the world today?
Is it something tangible, such as the major superpowers like the US and Europe, or is it something a bit less physically present such as global warming?
Is it the UN, who attempts to keep peace at all times throughout the world?
Is it the people themselves, who make up the population of the world?
Or is it something else?
I'll post my thoughts later, but for now, what are your opinions on what that powerful force really is?

i like these threads that make me think.
Hands Down Though
MONEY!
money drives almost everyone in some way or another. in 3rd world countires there lack of it makes them suffer.
in world powers people spend tons of it everyday to make there lives better.
its used to bargain peace.
it was used to buy off communism(kinda) in turkey and greece
there are wars over it. there are strict laws about it
money is the most powerfull force in the world today i think

I'm going with nuclear fission here. Earthquakes and volcanoes are pretty powerful stuff, but nothing beats the devastating force of an atomic explosion.

Good thread. I think the most powerful force in the world is unseen to normal civilian eyes and lies deep within some goverment waiting to be unleashed when the time is right.

This is EXACTLY what came to my mind after reading the first question. Have you ever heard the saying, "Money makes the world go round?" People would do just about anything if the price is right. First you get the money, then you get the power, then you get the women.

Yeah, I would say money too, because without it, everything would be so much better. I mean, come on, it manipulates people into doing rather stupid, and mostly evil things, it has the ability to shape people's lives or destroy it.
So other than that, I think that the companies that hold all this money is a great force in the world, they have the power to withold it and whatnot.
They can do what money can do because they...well, they are money.

Money, ambition and willing to take risks. At least, that's how I see it. This is why all Entrepeneurs should be respected.
Oh, and Mother Nature.

people!
one person can go missing and the world goes into uproar (referring to madeline)
religion!
there have been wars over it holy and otherwise, there are arguments over it, there are street brawls over it almost all the worlds problems are related in some way to religion
