Or impose a totalitarian rule on us which is exploited by (previously multinational) companies.

There is a conspiracy (call it a long term ideal, a vision of the future, if it makes you feel better) to create a bloc of american countries (north and south), another of asian countries and yet another of european countries (the EU). Then 'they' will combine them together into a one world government.
This is a good idea. It's logical and I am all for it as long as it's done with our consent and not in a cackhanded way like the EU is being attempted.
If it's done against the will of the peoples of the planet then we should fight it as much as we can.
