I think you missed my point about the USA already having achieved one world status. I'll repeat it since you missed it. Any particular country is effectively a one-world state, so it's not as though it's a big deal to achieve it. Each country is already a NUN. NZ for example used to be hundreds of tribes. Now it's one with the tribes still semi-sovereign within the whole. The USA is made up of lots of states with a total of 300 million people. It's not long ago that that would have been the whole world. So, as you can see, a one-world state can work reasonably well. Simple really. But a supranational state doesn't have to be such a Big Brother busy-body effort as the USA. States could have any amount of independence. Usually, people have a lot of trouble imagining things that have never been, even when similar examples are around. The normal reaction is "It won't work because .... " then they grab a few rough ideas on why it's a bad thing. My experience is that things can work very well if the fundamental ideas are sound and there are mechanisms for them to work. Australia is a bunch of states too. The Euro is an example of supranational organisation and it's working as well as other currencies. That's an example of what I mean. I'm plotting something even better and so far it's looking good. CDMA is already in place. It'll be the biggest empire in human history. Mqurice
