certain groups of people are always trying to take over the world. In the past it was done with armies and governments. Now its more of a clandestine, secret meetings between wealthy industrialists type of thing. But there are so many groups of disagreeing, powerful people trying to 'take over the world', that no one group will ever fully control everything.
These people can try to take over the world all they want. Some of them may even convince themselves that they run the world. But the fact of the matter is, no one organization can possibly control everything that happens in the world. Its just not possible. The fact that I am stoned right now, in defiance of the world government, is proof that they still are very far away from having total control of every individual's actions.
-------------------- "America touts itself as the land of the free, but the number one freedom that you and I have is the freedom to enter into a subservient role in the workplace. Once you exercise this freedom you've lost all control over what you do, what is produced, and how it is produced. And in the end, the product doesn't belong to you. The only way you can avoid bosses and jobs is if you don't care about making a living. Which leads to the second freedom: the freedom to starve." - Tom Morello

They want to keep you stoned, while they sneakily put into place treaties and policies that will slowly take away your chance to speak your mind. Many high politicians are for the controling of the internet even- i think. so... yeah

I want to see the law that sets this up, specifically where it says that we will all have ID cards and that all three countries will be joined as an official sovereign entity,
Care to answer me?

I don't have a subscription, so I can't read the whole article. I don't want commentary, I want some substance. Give me something from the government saying that this will be implemented..

You know what I think about this? I read a good discussion on the subject of western society etc. Some of you probably will hate me for this...
Our current society is based on the Enlightenment ideals of the 18th century. You know, democracy, religious tolerance, and all that.
All this is based on the idea of rational thinking. We believe that we can keep on improving ourselves through rationality and reason! Our current technology dominated society is directly based on this ideal of rationality and reasoning. We dissect the world around us through reason.
The end result of all this rationality and reason is a form of society where everything has to be controlled and governed through reason. We have to dominate everything! It's rational!
We have to be controlled, in order to keep on advancing. It's only logical! Society has to have rules!
The Enlightenment lead us to this rationality of conquering and dominating everything around us. It's the only logical conclusion of those Enlightenment ideals. We have to dominate other cultures because we are Enlightened! We are better! We are more civilized! We have democracy!!!
Fucked up eh.

I'd rather be ruled by those who embrace rationality than those who rule based on mysticism or religion.
