16. It's how America came to be
It's how the EU wants to come to be.

It would be nothing more than further centralization of power. It would be more power in fewer hands. That's why it will eventually happen. As long as we have cheap enough energy to keep it together, it will happen.

I'm not sure this is radical though. This would be the continuation of the general trend for the last few thousand years. The same thing will happen in SA, Africa, Asia, Europe, then all of those unions will absorb each other, and we'll finally end up with what we've been trying to do for a long time. One government, one corporation, one economic system, one of anything and everything. One is the most efficient, productive, and predictable number. It's the most orderly number. There is no diversity in the number one. That seems to be the goal.

Again, as long as we have cheap enough energy to constantly fight entropy.
