In the last century, we speculated (likely first by sci-fi authors) that MNC (multi-national corporations) that transcend borders would ultimately control the world. With lobbyists and super-pacs, it would seem that large enterprises (and individuals/families) are having increasing effect on politics. And the "power that be" would seems to continue to influence amongst less transparent positions.
We do not seem to be paying enough attention the rise of the private armies and clandestine operations. What does it mean when the most sophisticated military and spy (and likely cyber) operatives operate for hire (or for themselves)?
Who is running this planet? Will anyone try to figure this out?
