U. N. Further Advances its Globalist Agenda

Now it wants businesses to surrender to its authority:

http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.as...al&Cr1=compact

To quote the article...


The Geneva Declaration calls for urgent action. “Poverty, income inequality, protectionism and the absence of decent work opportunities pose serious threats to world peace and markets,” it says.


“Business, as a key agent of globalization, can be an enormous force for good,” participants declared, adding that companies, by committing themselves to corporate citizenship, can create and deliver value in the widest possible terms. Globalization can thus act as an accelerator for spreading universal principles, creating a values-oriented competition for a “race to the top.”

And then we have Mark Malloch Brown as the new Minister over Africa, Asia and the UN having left wing ties with George Soros (who is a trip!) saying, “President Bush’s push for freedom and democracy will run aground on the shoals of American exceptionalism if the United States keeps apart from the emerging international legal system”.

I don't like this wording, in your article - "income inequality". Communism.

Thanks for the article!

Business does need to be good citizens, however what this means for the most part is redistribution. While the earth is abundant in resources for every need of every human, human government does a poor job of managing this abundance, due to the wickedness of the hearts of men.

The leftist in the world are communist, and as such they want to dictate to everyone else how to live, yet be the elite themselves. The Al Gore and Hollywood complex.

The weather was effected by El Nino, now it is being effected by "Al Gorerea". We are having the wettest and coolest summer in Texas this year due to the Al Gorerea climate change and global warming. Gore couldn't win in politics so now he has reinvented himself as the high priest of the Myth of Global Warming. He has learned the gospel of victimization invented by Jesse Jackson, aka big $$$$$$.

It astounds me to see him still spitting out his junk on Global warming. The population, at large, have the - what I call - an Enquirer Mentality.

Whatever you read in the Enquirer must be true. Sheesh! I'm embarrassed for the person, in the checkout line, buying that! lol

Did you know that People magazine is written on a 7th grade reading level? Too funny!

As to your post before this one - "Redistribution" makes me shake!!! I hate that word.

Since when is it the responsibility of business to redistribute wealth? Why is it government's responsibility to manage the planet's resources?
