Slag, I'm a One World conspirator. But that doesn't mean I want any dopey thing that looks something like One World. I don't want free flow across borders of anyone who wants to move. I'd like tradeable citizenship and authentication and authorisation before people enter my property, same as when they enter my house to visit or live, enjoying the facilities I have provided.

The New Zealand industrialization idea was just economic ignorance, not a master plan for One Worlding. The whole process of immigration has been changed from the almost unrestricted entry it was then.

As even the most trivial consideration shows, there is a lot more to economic success than having lots of people. Singapore, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Norway, Ireland are examples of little countries with economic success. They don't depend on swarms of low paid people working in factories. Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, all of Africa, China, Russia all have lots of people and are not wealthy. They are poor. Note that China hasn't changed their population to go from poor to reasonably well-off. They changed their political ideology.
