United Nations’ New Plan: ‘Redistribute Wealth,’ Remove Sovereignty Barriers
Posted by Catherine Snow
While Americans celebrated Labor Day, Secretary General Ban Ki-moon gathered in the Austrian alps with the top echelon of the United Nations to answer the perennial issue – how to take charge of setting the world’s agenda.
According to position papers received by FOX News, a very ambitious agenda was planned for the two-day, top-secret meeting. Plenary sessions addressed a litany of topics, such as the financial and economic downturn, food insecurity, climate change, epidemics, migration, human rights abuses, and drug trafficking.
Despite the fact that the United States is the largest underwriter of the bureaucratic organization, the U.N. leadership devised a new plan to dismantle barriers to its long-term goals – primarily the problematic issue of national sovereignty.
Austin Ruse, president of Catholic Family and Human Rights Institute was not surprised by the U.N.’s power grab – or the Obama administration’s quick forfeiture of U.S. national sovereignty on numerous issues.
“The Obama administration is now peopled with individuals who really love the U.N.– and love the idea of global governance,” Ruse said. “The United States has been good up to this point. I fear that with the current crew in Washington some of this could begin to crumble.
“There’s no question that the U.N. wants to have a say in the global economy,” Ruse said. “The way they get that is through agenda crisis –like the climate change crisis.”
U.N. officials blame major superpowers, like the United States, China and India, for the failure of its global climate change initiatives.
TROUBLING TRENDS
Within the 46-page document, officials candidly discussed the redistribution of wealth was a means to an end. Other troubling excerpts include:
Global Governance: “…the U.N. should be able to take the lead in setting the global agenda, engage effectively with other multinational and regional organizations, as well as civil society and non-state stakeholders, and transform itself into a tool to help implement the globally agreed objectives.”
Redistribution of Wealth: A drastic redistribution of global wealth, “nothing less than a fundamental transformation of the global economy.”…”The real challenge comes from the exponential growth of the global consumerist society driven by ever higher aspirations of the upper and middle layers in rich countries as well as the expanding demand of emerging middle-class in developing countries. Our true ambition should be therefore creating incentives for the profound transformation of attitudes and consumption styles.”
Climate Change: “…nothing is more crucial to preventing run-away climate change than lifting billions out of poverty, protecting our planet and fostering long-term peace and prosperity for all.”
Political Power Shifts: “Is the global governance structure, still dominated by national sovereignty, capable of responding with the coherence and speed needed? Or, do we need to push the ‘reset’ button and rethink global governance to meet the 50-50-50 Challenge?” which would provide clean water, food and energy to 50 percent more people, while reducing global emissions by 50 percent – all by 2050.
