I figure we're well down the path of the Ferengi. Rules of acquisition #18.
We definitely will achieve Ferenginar if the EU succeeds at becoming the world government. The thing everyone forgets about the Ferengi is that they don’t have unbridled laissez-faire capitalism. They have one societal government with a vast bureaucracy, with one branch highlighted prominently in the show: the Ferengi Commerce Authority.
The FCA is so powerful within Ferengi society that their best comparison in historical human society is probably the Catholic Church in the Middle Ages and Renaissance.
We get a lot of shit, as we should, 1/3 of our population voted for Trump, but I’m not seeing much moral high ground from the EU. A lot of the same oligarch fueled themes to control and demoralize humanity as a whole apply.
