An agreed global policy doesn't equal a global government. There have been some attempts at clamping down on tax havens, which would reduce money laundering and encourage corporations to register companies in their home countries, rather than on some offshore island.

However, these efforts are mostly blocked by nation states claiming one excuse or another. The real reason is that these governments are mostly controlled by global corporations.

So I'd say this argument about sovereignty and potential world government is a diversion - a means to stop change which would benefit ordinary people around the world, rather than corporations and government.

I mentioned tax havens because that is how we can do something about it.. And the solution is as stated - global agreements to make laws to prevent individuals / corporations from avoiding their obligations

It doesn't make any difference whether they have allegiance to a country or not, they are still bound by laws. And you can't stop people from moving around and spending their money where they want, nor should we try.

Taxation is not the only legal loophole limbo that corporations enjoy as there are many other liability and exploitation issues around. 'Legal Shopping' is the term that describes the process where corporations search and lobby for favourable and profitable laws amongst a diverse regulation environment around the world.

I can understand the fear in all the NWO talk as it is a complex issue and without information fear is a very common reaction. But it does look like a game is getting played...

The UN has no capacity or interest of directly getting involved in the issues of an individual. It is more concerned about national relationships, issues, governance and oversight. With a big NWO fear campaign it is distracting support and resources from a more cohesive system, a system that would bring these lawless global entities to account. Instead we are left with these lawless entities pulling the strings.

I do not blame the UN as it is still maturing and has had a lot of other issues to contend with, but the time is nearing where either these corporations are challenging nation power with their resources and capability, but are not subject to as many national oversights. Every day is a new world, instead of denying tomorrow how about just doing what we can to make the most of it?

What is shocking to me is how many people are crying about more government control in our lives yet at the same time they want the government to take the money of others so that the government can fix all their problems. The republicans use things like the patriot act to declare war on its own people while the democrats do it with the IRS.
