 |
|
Has anyone else read up on this???
Bill S2433....."the Global Poverty Act"
This is a bill that lets the president implement a 'global welfair system' of sorts, taking money from the US and giving it to the UN for the UN to distribute to poverty level nations.
Although there is no guideline for an amount, some are saying it would be .7% of the US GDP, or about 860 Billion Dollars over the next 7 years!! And given to the UN?? But with no set amount, what would it be?? And this is in addition to the 65 Billion we already give as aid per year.
I have read it over and would need to do so a few times to really get it all, however it offers some disturbing prospects(IMO).....And for all those who want to stop spending our money on foriegn lands(Iraq), what would this be doing?? Who would be getting rich from this?? Sounds like world socalism to me(IMO)......
If you look at the person who drafted this bill it makes sense....here is the link..
now...you can......decide for yourself.....

Sounds like they just want to justify what they have been doing all along anyway.

Is this what the government calls "outsourcing", to let someone else screw us so we don't have too.
