September 2010
The
Summit opening the 65th United Nations General Assembly, from
September 20-25, stayed home to defend the status quo. On September 20-22 the Summit on the UN
Millennium Development Goals for 2015 levied pledges of $40 billion over the
next five years for the Global Strategy for Women’s and Children’s Health. They
hope to save the lives of more than 16 million women and
children, preventing 33 million unwanted pregnancies, protecting 120 millions
of children from pneumonia and 88 million children from stunting, advancing the
control of deadly diseases such as malaria and HIV/AIDS, and ensuring access
for women and children to quality facilities and skilled health workers. Goals 4 and 5 to reduce infant and maternal
mortality by 2/3 and ¾ are the farthest from being fulfilled, of all the goals,
showing only marginal improvements of around 10-25% since 1990. Folic acid multi-vitamin supplements are not
on the agenda, although they are the only unique recommendation for pregnant
women in the United States, and while infants and women deserve some special protection
and treatment, for the most part their health is the same or even more reliant
upon the availability of clean water and sanitation, than men. Infant mortality statistics in the United
States did improve when the problem was studied, but they remain higher than in
other industrialized nations, and the time of major improvement was the same
time of major improvement in health indicators, primarily attributed to
universal access to clean water and sanitation.
This fund, like all health care and hospital subsidies in developing
nations should make sure to cooperate with road, water and sanitation efforts
to ensure everyone has access to clean water, sanitation and transportation to
hospitals. This funding is a logical
response to the likely failure to achieve Goals 4 and 5 it is only hoped that
in their feminine militancy they are not deaf to the truth regarding the
futility of health theology and need for hygienic utilities so the goals will
be met.
On September 22 a High Level
Meeting was held to discuss the International Year of Biodiversity 2010 and
strategies for achieving biodiversity targets under the Convention on
Biological Diversity. As a consequence of human actions, species are being lost
at a rate that is estimated to be up to 100 times the natural rate of extinction.
In the past century, 35 per cent of mangroves, 40 per cent of forests and 50
per cent of wetlands have been lost. It
is hoped that environmental restoration and conservation efforts will generate
trillions of dollars and be the foundation for sustainable economic development
in the future. Subsidies are needed to
ensure the overriding human economic and social rights, particularly in
developing countries, are in fact harmonized with the long term need for sustainable
development founded upon environmental conservation and the preservation of
biological and genetic diversity. Global
Biodiversity Outlook of 2010 provides a comprehensive look at biodiversity loss
around the globe. Climate change
is a major factor in biodiversity loss. With regard to species, every 1°C rise in
temperature is expected to put an additional 10 per cent of species at
increased risk of extinction. The rate
of loss of marine ecosystems is much higher than that of any other ecosystem on
the planet; in some instances it is up to four times that of rainforests.
Currently, on average, between 2 and 7 per cent of our blue carbon sinks,
responsible for half of all carbon capture, are lost annually, a seven-fold increase
compared to only half a century ago. Ocean
acidity has increased by 30 per cent since the Industrial Revolution, a change
that is about 100 times faster than any change in acidity during the past 50
million years or so. A new environmental
treaty on the preservation of marine ecosystems is needed to supplement, on an
equal basis, the three Rio treaties that form the foundation of international
environmental conservation efforts.
The General Debate raged from
September 23-24. Joseph Deiss from Switzerland was elected President of the 65th
General Assembly. He and the Swiss
President argued for the unified efforts of the UN not to be undermined by
other actors. They are disturbing in
that UN Headquarters are located in Geneva, Switzerland, a fully industrialized
nation famed for its banking, and seems to admit that they are a defense of the
banking sector bailout, whose toxic individualized residential persecution is
driving people from the UN in droves. They
do raise the issue that the UN is legitimate because its members are
legitimate, and are not opposed to my democratic reforms to the UN Charter they
censure. US President Barack Obama spoke
in behalf of all colonial military bases and genealogy oriented university professors
in a speech that reeked of nicotine withdrawal, but like most psychotic delusions
was firmly based in a religious belief that he could negotiate for a
Palestinian Member of the UN by next year, if he was only allowed to quote my
research finding that a Palestinian Supreme Court is needed to fulfill Arafat’s
constitution, but he is really too abusive to infringe without a princely sum
in compensation, so it remains to be seen.
Most of the speakers exhibited some delusional qualities, particularly
in regards to the international cooperation and institutions that are so
corrupted by coups in defense of impunity for the ICC assassination of WHO
Director General Lee Jong-wook from Korea, killed in
Switzerland the day before the Health Assembly in Geneva in 2006. For several years now the only sure voice of
sanity, good governance and leadership is that of the Chinese Delegate Wen Jiabao, who stayed home to laud Chinese progress on
development and apologize for its corruption and inequality, for most of his
speech, from which I quote, “The world of the 21st Century is far from tranquil, but
gone are the days when problems were ultimately settled by war. Peace and development remain the defining
features of our time” a century when we are destined to achieve income equality
and China and India will come to lead a democratically elected and
administrated world government.
On September 24 a High Level
Meeting to Revitalize the Efforts on Disarmament was held to ensure President
Obama’s nicotine withdrawal psychosis would not result in any more Haitian
earthquakes or Pakistani floods. And on
September 24-25 the Summit was concluded with a Five Year Review of the Mauritius
Strategy for the Implementation of the Barbados Programme
of Action for the Sustainable Development of Small Island Developing States to
assure us that small grants and development packages would indeed go to small
island developing states and not be used to subvert, spy on and torture, the
authors and leaders of international development who are in hiding, in remote
undeveloped and lightly populated areas until justice is done, either by the
expiration of their terms in office or self-discipline. Small island nations are indeed attractive
and defensible places to settle. If you
live on a particularly small and developing the international community might
not even be able to cover up their visit, to torch your grass hut after
intercepting your communication and tracing the location it came from, with
their ordinary missions to embezzle the local government. While I would like the United States to be
included in the UN Demographic Yearbook and achieve the 0.7 percent of GDP
contribution to ODA target, I do not feel that the UN Charter or the people who
have come to dominate it, rule effectively, and are not able to do so unless
they amend their Charter nearly exactly as I direct, and they are furthermore
temporarily incapacitated because some idiot Trans-Atlantic slaver committed
war crimes, in retaliation against my breach of confidentiality in statistical
abstracting, that forced reparation of their victims, but in defense of the
prosecution overthrew the international government and economy. The UN needs to cooperate in empirical
statistical affairs, but must not intervene in social and economic affairs, nor
undermine and sabotage the so-called competition, because in a liberal
democracy the government is the enemy of the (very tender) economy. The UN and governments in general are not
welcome to play with the people or plagiarize the author (they must pay) but
governments are needed to be responsible for statistics and the fulfillment of human
rights.
Empirical US Foreign Assistance
Statistics at the Close of the American Imperial Century: An Act to Secure a Voluntary 1 percent ODA Tax on Income HA-30-9-10
The US government needs to prove
they have the human intelligence to contribute 0.7 percent of their GDP to ODA
by 2015. This can be accomplished if the
US performs four tasks. First, the US
government’s official leaders of international development must publish annual
foreign assistance statistics prominently on their website,
transmit this to the US Census Bureau and CIA World Factbook
to make foreign assistance the focus of US international relations for the
domestic constituency of donors and advocates.
Second, capitalizing upon their new found bona fide empirical professionalism and mastery of the field of
foreign relations the US Foreign Service must amend the intelligence failures
in their foreign relations law, limit military financing to under the $800
million global limit, and bring an end to these foolish wars in the Middle East
and Central Asia by purchasing their quota from an Afghan Opium Agency. Third, going back the official table of
foreign assistance the Department of State and USAID must account for the
unique prevalence of private tax deductible contributions to causes that
qualify as ODA and transmit these totals annually to the US Bureau of the
Census and therefrom to the CIA World Factbook, OECD
and UN Development Program to ensure the quantity and quality of US foreign aid
is fully respected and credited by the international institutions that keep ODA
statistics. Fourth, to be fairly certain
to achieve the 0.7 percent contribution target by 2015, a 350 percent increase
from 0.2 percent, 0.25 with private contributions, the US must legislate a
voluntary 1 percent official development payroll tax immediately, that would be
administrated by USAID, that would not become enforced for all taxpayers until
2020 when the UN Charter Legitimate Edition should be ratified and first
Secretary of the UN elected. Everyone
likes the idea of a tax to pay welfare to the world’s poorest people. Three out of four Americans say they would
like to pay such a 1 percent international development tax as long as it
promoted peace and went to the world’s poorest people and the other quarter
aren’t sure, but aren’t opposed to the idea.
Enacting the 1 percent international development tax now will give USAID
the power to the fulfill the MDGs for the word’s poorest and richest alike. A short Act is proposed in the appendix to
this treatise to secure the peace, enact the tax and concisely and sovereignly
direct US foreign policy at the beginning of the 21st century.
Book 5 International Development (ID)
To
amend Chapter 5 Columbia Institution for the Deaf §231-250. Under the Millennium Development, MDGs to end
poverty for 1990-2015, the number of hungry people living on less than $1 day
is to be cut in half to 622 million people.
In 2005 843 million people, 12.5% of the population, were hungry and
over a billion lived on less than a dollar a day, 21%. In 2009 after the economic crisis the number
of hungry people rose to 18%, 1.2 billion people and the number of poor to
22.9%, more than the 22.75% called for in the MDGs. The spread of the HIV/AIDS pandemic has already
been halted and reversed. The recession
is a major setback and the only viable option is for the basket of
industrialized national currencies to appreciate developing nation currencies,
ending neo-colonial exploitation.
Official Development Assistance (ODA) growth must be sustained to
achieve the intermediate target of 0.7% of GDP on the way to a 1% social
security style payroll tax for international development. The US must account for their unique private
assistance flows in a up to date master table and
report to the UN Demographic Yearbook.
Voting at the Bretton Woods institutions must be reformed from
contribution based to population based, a one person one vote democratic
system. IMF Special Drawing Rights (SDR)
shall be the international reserve currency.
The US shall reduce the price of a
work visa from $2,500 to $500, purchase a quota from the Afghan Opium Agency,
and terminate funding of the Israeli/Egyptian US military finance race. The Foreign Service Exam shall be reserve for
people with a minimum qualification of a BA in International Affairs or
equivalency. The
U.S. shall amend Title 22 Foreign Relations and Intercourse (a-FRaI-d) to Foreign Relations (FR-ee),
change the name of the Court of International of the United States (COITUS) to
Customs Court (CC), to finish dividing the USAID Bureau for Asia and the Near
East (ANE) into the Bureaus for the Middle East and Central Asia (MECA)
including India and South East Asia (SEA) including Oceania. Although the number of casualties of war have
gone down since the foundation of the United Nations income inequality, poverty
and deaths from preventable disease have increased and to democratically elect
a bona fide civilian government it is resolved to set down the General of the
United Nations (GUN), elect a Secretary of the UN (SUN), change ECOSOC to
Socio-Economic Administration, General Assembly to Parliament, Trusteeship to
Human Rights Council and establish an International Tax Administration by
ratifying the United Nations Charter Legitimate Edition (UNCLE)…674
