You're asking for evidence of no corruption in a totalitarian regime? Are you for real? By their very nature, they're corrupt.

What you're describing is global totalitarianism. There is none. Sure, we can make any number of predictions, and that's fine as far as it goes, but don't ask anyone to behave as if theoretical possibility were absolute certainty. Why should they?

As far as the medical establishment charging a fee for it's services, that's tangential. They power they wield is not one born of corruption. The power to save lives and alleviate suffering is hardly evil.

Exactly, no totalitarian government has ever been good. Now, they want to start a system of global "governance" that is not elected, does not speak for the people, has nobody to hold it accountable and trancends national soveriegnty (which means they operate above the law of the land). That will end as a totalitarian regime, it's set up that way. Tell me why I should take the chance that it won't go bad by giving up my freedom. By gaurding against the possibilty, we remain safe and free. By trusting them to rule with impunity, if they do go wrong, we won't be able to do anything about it. So, again, tell me why I should just let this happen.
