David Rockefeller is a philanthropist and it is possible he may have said such statements, but like all philanthropists and humanists, his personal views only stop with him. He is not a politician, has no power, etc. and can't enact anything.
Citing source data is the "scientific method," but does not seem to apply to "Conspiracy Theories." A thousand sources may be quoted, yet will not convince the "skeptics," the "realists." It seems to me the "symptoms of mental illness" are on their side, if they refuse to look at evidence ("There are none so blind as those who WILL not see"); or perhaps something more sinister is at work, such as a knowledge of the truth, that does not want YOU to know.
To be paranoid means to believe in delusions of danger and persecution. If the danger is real, and the evidence credible, then it cannot be delusional. To ignore the evidence, and hope that it CANNOT be true, is more an evidence of mental illness.

The problem with your approach to this is that while there is a certain amount of "Globalism" which has expanded national economies, it doesn't necessarily command a need for a One World Govt to run things centrally. This is the crux of the issue for me, as Centralization means the State runs all our lives. This is called COMMUNISM, or MARXISM. Sorry for the caps but it needs to be said. It's the same Communists running things from the Obama admin. Why would anyone want that?

ATSers like to keep their definitions of the "NWO" vague, so that they can attach anything they dont like to it, not matter how contradictory.

I don't need to answer that just think about it, logically rather idealistically. Honestly I would love for a united world but not if that means the above; I would rather the world leaders had some degree of consequence if they stepped over the line.
The issue is not the world as one, it is whoever will take charge. Obviously the greedy corupt people of today wont hand over there power, so they will always be influencing the system.

Dont they already have it?

You mean consequences enforced by a global governing body?

Your description of how a One World Government might be mis-used sounds A LOT like how things currently are.
I fail to see how a world governing body could be worse than the current state of affairs where a handful of Western leaders pill age the world with no consequence.

You're wrong. Obama's nowhere near a commie. And not all communist movements were for a global centralized government. If you don't see a difference between the anglophile Fabian Socialists (H.G. Wells was one) with revolutionary communists, you need to go back to read some books.
Obama, like the last few Presidents, is a FASCIST. Fascism supports a central power based on repressive, violent public policing, a unitarian vision of society and State as an organic community, and the full merger of (some) corporations with the State... aside from defending a very exclusive wealthy caste against all the rest, with a central figure of authority having the monopoly of violence. This is what you have in Amerika, now.
..especially since the UN's Resolution 1973, a negation of the 1973 War Powers Act, which means a shift from the power of the Congress to the power of a dictator... just like when some tyrant usurped patricians in Rome, to become the Emperor.
This is the symbol of fascism:
And here it is, displayed right on the walls of the US Congress
Fascism: Power to the rich, through unity.
Communism: Power to the "proles", through communes.
And no, Obama's surely not a proletarian.edit on 10/7/11 by Echtelion because: (no reason given)

You have absolutely no evidence to support your ridiculous assertions. There are no "global elites" that want to control the world and reduce the population. No human organization can perpetuate this "ultimate plan" for years and years without any thing going wrong. That just not plausible.
