Well, it looks like this discussion has come to the end of the line. One last question (no doubt you will ignore also), before I close.

Define "Global Consensus"?

Not so fast their GST. <As for FADG posts, so far as I know, the world couldn't care less and FADG has no standing as an important international forum. >

I am the world and I care. I have learned quite a bit and like to see what people think, unfiltered by official media. I don't accept that politicians and governments are the important people. They just carry out what they have found is politically acceptable. We the Sheeple determine what is acceptable. We are the ones who make the running. They just try to stay in front of the mob.

We decide what happens, with the click of our mice moving our money and the clickety click of our keyboards expressing our ideas and giving information. The tidal surge of moving money and opinion is irresistible. It can only be stopped by impermeable dams, which are notoriously leaky and can be overtopped or simply pushed away if not strong enough.

With globalisation, even the mighty USA can't dam the tide [even if they wanted to and were stupid enough to think it a good idea to try]. Albania, North Korea and China built walls around themselves and suffered greatly.
