Where do you guys get these ideas from? Late night coast to coast radio conspiracy theories? The UN is nothing more than a place for countries to voluntarily get together to agree to work together. They aren't some unelected one world government handing down edicts to control us. This new "treaty" has no effect on us until our Congress ratifies it by passing a new law that allows it. That's it. As if the UN did not exist and Congress passed this law of it's own accord. Same thing.
If the UN disbanded and the building was removed from NYC today, tomorrow we would still need a place for countries to get together to discuss issues and try to work together to resolve common problems. Better here than Brussels, Berlin or Bonn.
The UN has no power over us, except what we agree to do ourselves. When we volunteer to enter into a treaty it is like signing a contract. That is all. We are bound by the terms, because we agreed to them. If we don't agree to them, we are not bound to the term.
Very true Joe. I'm not worried about today or even tomorrow. I'm worried about 20 or 30 years from now, what may happen to my children's or my grand children's rights. The country seems to be heading in the wrong direction and its only getting worse. What happens in 10 years if Hillary is elected? She has always been a big proponent for the treaty. I'm just worried about the backdoor politics I guess and what are the future possibilities of this passing.
