True that. If nations have no sense of national culture and identity, then corporations inevitably become more powerful because they are still able to operate in a coordinated fashion, by "virtue" of being directed by a single person. Actually, I suppose a lack of national culture or sense of national identity would also weaken democracies more than dictatorships.
