RE: Will Colonising The Solar System Divide Human Beings?
There is one benefit to the above scenario, it would mean that the people of Earth all came together, and that wars on Earth between Nations are a thing of the past. Of course there may be small resistance type internal struggles on Earth, but in order to have the Whole planet behind the Military/Political system that is in control of Earth and the running of the war between it and any non Earth system, major world wars would have to be a part of the past.
You can't have The Western continents support the Mars population, and not expect The Eastern Continents to not bomb them back into the stone age.
Yeah, it would unite all people of Earth but in a way, it would make wars even bigger as they would be planetary levels. Right now, using nuclear weapons on one country might hurt other countries as well due to the effects of such an explosion. When things become inter-planetary, nukes could be used without havign to worry about that danger.
