What’s kind of depressing about this is it’s essentially the back story to the Earth in the Alien franchise. They dissolved governments and just let the five major corporations (ran by individual trillionaires) run the world.

Not shown: the innumerable corporate wars fought to create and expand these borders.

This is already happening guys, this IS going to be our medium-term future.

Alien only demonstrates the penultimate world government organization, before they each Psychopathic Oligarch decides they have to be sole King of the World, and they go to war genociding each other, with only one left standing.

Then it's BuynLarge from Wall-E.
