I would also like to submit my application. Unless the NWO is defeated somehow...Then I was just collecting information for the resistance.

How can I get in on it? No, I don't want to have my own feifdom to rule - I don't even want to own any slaves. I just want a really low-level managerial position or even a small hour-wage secretarial position where I would have minimal authority and would draw the least attention to myself.

There was a sociological experiment done not too long ago, wherein the subject was told to press a button, and in doing so they'd deliver a mild electric shock to a person on the other side of a wall. They'd be told to push the button by a smart looking sharply dressed lab director, and they would. No biggie eh? Then they'd be told that this dial turns the voltage up. They'd be instructed to turn it up and shock the person, and sequentially turn it up and up to keep shocking them, and they'd do it, often under great personal duress even when the dial was in a clearly marked lethal zone. Of course, there ends up being no one behind the wall. There's a similar experiment where student volunteeers are divided into Cops and Inmates in a made up prison system. Its a joke at first, but by the end, the Cops are beating the crap outta the inmates, they view the inmates, in reality fellow students, as 'dangerous people' who 'need to be controlled', and the inmates are just as violent and suspicious torwards the cops and view them as dangerous.
The NWO, if it existed (which it doesn't), is not something that you sign up for in defference to being destroyed by it.

If you accept, you are then required to sign a legal document stating that they may kill you if you try to leave, or reveal any secret information to anyone.

Sure you can. Doesn't make it legally meaningful, but people sell real estate on the moon too.
>just like you cannot legally commit suicide.
Poor example. Even if it were true, the fact remains that people DO commit suicide. Similarly, even if the act of signing away one's rights carries no legal weight, it is still possible to sign the document, and I can think of several reasons to ask people to do so which have nothing to do with legality.
And who says you can't legally commit suicide?
In the U.S. suicide has never been treated as a crime nor punished by property forfeiture or ignominious burial. (Some states listed it on the books as a felony but imposed no penalty.)
>For Christ's sake man, think before you type!
Don't you think this statement is a bit harsh?
