On July 20, 1992, Strobe Talbott, who was at the time a columnist for TIME and who went on to become President Bill Clinton’s deputy secretary of state, wrote: I’ll bet that within the next hundred years (I’m giving the world time for setbacks and myself time to be out of the betting game, just in case I lose this one), nationhood as we know it will be obsolete; all states will recognize a single, global authority. … perhaps national sovereignty wasn’t such a great idea after all.

    I didn't think of them as looters when watching that movie the first time, but now that I have read AS, that is exactly how I think of them.

    Won't be able to use that distinction much longer. Glad that they are finally going to complete the trilogy of trilogies, though. This might actually be a "what to do to restore Liberty" guidebook if they do it right.

    I liked the old Star Wars movies better than the newer ones, but the end of the Galactic Senate scene typifies exactly what I can't stand about the direction of America and of Earth.

    If there is only a single, global authority, it will be like Star Wars 3.

    The Emperor: [to the Senate] In order to ensure our security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized into the first Galactic Empire, for a safe and secure society which I assure you will last for ten thousand years.

    [Senate fills with enormous applause]

    Padmé: [to Bail Organa] So this is how liberty dies... with thunderous applause.
