"Better yet where possible are global markets, where people get to choose
for themselves without imposing their choice on others."

Too bad our CORE advocates can't adopt that principle.

In practical terms, I don't think a "global" vote makes sense. A vote of
people worldwide, yes, but only of interested parties who know what they
are
voting about.  yes, I know, who decides? maybe we should have a global vote
on that! (just kidding!)  it should organize bottom-up, Better yet where
possible are global markets, where people get to choose for themselves
without imposing their choices on others.
