    And lest someone think this is some hippy-dippy bullshit that will cause all kinds of problems, eliminating national borders would add $100 TRILLION to the global GDP, 2/3 of which would be in the Global South.

      2/3 of which would be in the Global South.

      And that’s why the borders exist in the first place. The point of money is not wealth, but wealth disparity. Money gives you power over those with less, and borders help enforce that disparity. The poverty is a feature, not a bug.

        Even Marx thought that capitalism was an improvement over earlier systems, and he might be correct. But like religion - which helped people cooperate at larger scales than a tribe - it has reached a point where the evils that it inflicts on the world far outweigh any past benefits.

      You’re going to have to provide some kind of evidence for what you surely must acknowledge is an absurdly bold claim.

      That link is one of the worst links to explaom somethinf I have seen.

      That’s such a ludicrous claim it can just be rejected.

        Gee, if only you could click the other links to the actual papers. Or had literally any curiosity at all. Maybe then you wouldn’t sound like an ignorant lazy child.
