Additionally, global capitalism and the obsession with securing land and resources would be a major block to this idea. Less

While borderless systems have existed in the past, from the time of Alexander the Great to the Roman Empire, they eventually became unmanageable and were neglected.

I believe that people should have the freedom to move freely between nations LEGALLY. Boarders have always existed and it will be extremely difficult for all nations to comply with an open boarder policy worldwide. We have boarders in every country, so countries can monitor those coming in and out of their country and if they are safe and not a threat. Less
