The trend as we reach the new millenium is to eliminate national distinctions and create centralized super-state organizations such as the emerging European Union which has all of the threat of becoming the United States of Europe, a federal, imperial nightmare for the future. New multi-national or non-national organizations, whichever way you view it, are developing for the purpose of smoothing out economic activities in the global market, this provides both benefits and dangers. The benefits include the fact that claims of national sovereignty, which were always fraudulent, are now being, in many ways, ignored. Political-national borders are being erased in Europe, national sovereignty claims are simply becoming irrelevant, an antiquated idea being swept onto the dust heap of history along with the divine right of kings. The benefits of globalization contribute to a greater liberty to travel, to do business, greater economic opportunities as well as greater social and cultural opportunities and of course more opportunities for building free enterprise governments and civil institutions to replace the state. As the nation-state begins to disappear because it is antiquated -- it's not able to deal with global issues -- states are remnants of the feudal system that can only survive by controlling an isolated people and economy. States can't regulate the global economy or environment, nor can they continue to control people who are forming complex communities and partnerships that are obliterating national identities.
   The negative side of all of this is that as global institutions are being built they are assuming their own powers to regulate the economy and people's lives with it, they are the skeletons of super-states that could potentially be a much greater oppressor of individual liberty simply because they may become much more powerful than any nation-state and there may be less opportunity to choose a different state if the one under which you are living becomes too repressive. In George Orwell's 1984 he described a world dominated by three super-states.
   The state thinks people are savages who can't live in peace without an overlord, when people naturally do live in mostly peaceful and cooperative societies, they suffer only because the state robs them of their money, invents and wages wars, organizes violence against individual rights, restricts competition and imposes regulations which holds down the economy. Most of the crime in society is perpetrated by the state by political conspiracy to commit crimes against fundamental human rights, other crimes are a result of teaching people to be a irresponsible and disrespect human rights and reject consensual societies, this leads to further crimes while other crimes result from people not having the opportunity to create a legitimate government and security services that effectively protect themselves. So the state is in many ways, responsible for most crime. Without the state there would be much more peace and prosperity for everyone. Indeed, the fact that the state can only exist through criminal coercion and force is the best argument why its artificial and must be eliminated -- its against the laws of nature.
   The political rulers and special interest groups are in reality weak and their power is fragile, all that needs to happen is for a critical mass of the people to become educated and inspired and to rise up against them. Indeed, simply ceasing to cooperate with the political mob will cause their seemingly all powerful institution to crumble like a house of cards, which is precisely what happened to one Soviet Bloc state after another until the Soviet empire disappeared virtually overnight like a puff of smoke leaving the traces what what seemed to have been only an illusion. An illusion was just what it was, mass mind control, a violent institution based on lies and coercion, when the mass of people who were its subjects stopped cooperating in their own slavery and refused to follow the orders of individuals who, like the Wizard of Oz, only wields the power illusion, the people suddenly looked around and at themselves and realized that the nation-state doesn't even really exist, they were just foolishly entangled in a sado-masochistic web of self punishment.

Allan W. Bock(1) wrote, "We live toward the end of an era in which the state as an institution has been revealed as the enemy of freedom, justice and all that is decent about human life, the wager of war on a literally unbelievable scale, the quasher of the hopes, dreams and ambitions of its subjects, the sworn enemy of God and religion. Yet hardly anybody can envision anything other than more use of state power, more regulation, more repression of individual and local ambition, more destruction of liberty -- more slaughter and use of unaccountable power -- as a way to deal with the world's problems."

Any nation or government only exists for a brief moment in time, the earth travels at a great speed through space, the continents are on the move, mountain ranges rise and fall, species evolve and become extinct, surely its not too much to expect for transient governments to change their ways.
