The Fall of the Nation State.
📝 “Information technology facilitates dramatically increased competition between jurisdictions. When technology is mobile and transactions occur in cyberspace, as they increasingly will do, governments will no longer be able to charge more for their services than they are worth to the people who pay for them. Anyone with a portable computer and a satellite link will be able to conduct almost any information business—anywhere— and that includes almost the whole of the world’s multi trillion dollar financial transactions. ”
