>Which'd be fine if we had one global government with world wide jurisdiction.

I wholeheartedly disagree. A world wide goverment would be catastrophic for whistleblowing. Atleast as a whistleblower you can live somewhat safely in a country opposing your own. With a one world government you would have nowhere to run.

And I wouldn't expect them to protect citizen's interests any better than current governments do. Contrary, I think this lack of balance in the world would embolden them further.
