Not just faceless corporations, but ordinary people, are going global. Democratic institutions are going global. Of course, you wouldn't know that by looking at the behavior of the American Corporate Press. It chose to ignore the historic event altogether. Hell, they're just a bunch of ordinary citizens getting together to discuss trivial issues like world government, global democracy and the future of the planet.
Democracy is overrated.
All it has ever given us , is trouble. All of those messy protests full of unsightly agitators and complainers. It's just awful. And besides that, democracy can't buy you stock options or a brand-new beach house on the French Riviera. It can't even buy you a new 2001 Lexus, for goodness' sake.
