Recent policies of many Western countries have gone against the best interest of their own citizens. Canada's efforts to suppress its oil and natural gas industries, the Netherlands' suppression of its agricultural industry, Germany's voluntary destruction of its industrial base, the UK's gradual backtracking on Brexit and Switzerland's departure from its longstanding political neutrality are a few examples.

The simplest explanation for these trends is that the political elites are acting on behalf of people who believe in the dissolution of national boundaries in favour of global governments, with themselves as the leaders of course.
