Did you ever hear of the 'SPP'?? That was a treaty to create a 'common border' between canada, US and Mexico. This treaty has been signed effectively turning the thre countries into a union of countries. It's almost 6 years now.
don't worry that's just conspiracy... if that makes you more comfortable.
That has more to do with acts of terrorism perpetrated by the IRA right up to the nineties than it does with population increase; furthermore, having surveillance on public streets pales in comparison to children being hung for petty theft or slave ownership or women not having the right to vote, so I reiterate that they are far more liberal of a society today than they ever have been, again population increase has had a positive correlation with liberalism.
And how did those camera's fare when a real terrorist act hit (05-05-05)... all the relevent camera's weren't filming.
Whatever the 'excuse' to put so many camera's, the level of surveillance just acts as a 'police grid'... so rather then 'show your papers' the camera's have face scanning software.
That's debatable things; such as, bioengineered food stocks and alternative fuel sources could solve the problem of resource scarcity.
I agree that bioengineering and alternative fuels COULD solve these issues indefinately.
What do you see with bioengineering?? You got sterile seeds, genetically built in pesticides, inadequate testing... GMO is about protecting profits above and beyond it's 'humanitarian' potential.
Alternative fuels... the oil cartels represent a monopoly and a tremendous profit potential only as long as people will burn their oil. These are VERY powerful entities to battle when trying to make alternative fuels a reality.
Police state my ass, Nazi Germany was a police state, North Korea is a police state, the Soviet Union was a police state, London is not a police state and again they are more liberal and free today than ever before. The government clap-trap about going back to the good old days is a bunch rubbish both here and in places like the U.K. because in actuality liberty levels are higher today than in the past.
Canada, US, Britain and australia especially are all 'soft' police states... in that so much that you do in these countries can be tracked traced and databased... in Britain with as much detail as to say where you live, where you go, the car you drive, anything bought through a bank card...
All that's left for Britain especially is the 'enforcement' phase. Canada and the US are catching up to this... 'red light' cameras go up on a nearly monthly basis where I live.
Why in the hell do all of the conspiracists pre-suppose that a one world government necessary implies a distopia? I don't think it will be a utopia either in actuality I believe it would look more familiar than one would think, probably something along the lines of a federalist system on a global scale in which individual nation states would be the equivalent of individual states within the framework of the U.S. Republic.
Because from the writings of the people that would implement such a system claim to be creating the world governent as the means to the end of the 'orderly extermination of the vast majority of the population'. They will call the majority of the population such endearing terms as 'useless feeders', 'dumb apes', 'weeds', etc...
It's dystopic because it's evil control freaks that envision and are working ceaselessly to this end. They represent the most vile and evil humanity has to offer... that they are also masters of deceit they are all to happy to make suggestions like 'I don't like that they have to die, but it's for the greater good.'... Rockefeller (a common name when discussing the new world order, of anything older then a year or two since the terms becoming ever more common) makes the claim that people will be made to love their enslavement.
It's about power and control... the ultimate power and control is the power over who lives and who dies and when.
