The death of nations

In 1918 the German sociologist Max Weber defined the modern state as “a human community that successfully claims the monopoly of the legitimate use of physical force within a given territory”. One of the mains uses of that physical force has been to compel payment of taxes levied by the state.

If nation-states can no longer tax, they will die:

You guessed it: the corporations and bankgangsters have won. The market states they are creating will be the new sovereigns. They will decide who gets to eat and who gets to die.

And Obama ad-Dajjal and Hillary the Harpy are their sock-puppets. They will suck up to the new global authorities even as "their" own population withers and dies.
