I guess the real question is will the rise of war machines reduce or increase the likelihood of Nations going to war?

I thought CERN was just for stealing and harvesting souls?

Yeah... but oddly they could still impose their own taxes.

Right! I get it that Nevada is struggling economically, but could they be making a rash decision? It's kind of hard to undue a town once it's been established.

I agree. At the same time I'm torn by the idea of private companies being there own sovereign entities like a city or county. But at the same time, honestly, are city councils and county commissions any more moral than private companies?
I think my biggest hang up is the draft proposal that allows the formation of the defacto county commissioners to be chosen by the companies. But like the article says, the draft could change, so the final proposal might not be the same. I think if they were elected from citizens I'd be a lot more excited.
