1. I believe in the UN vision: "to save mankind from the scourge of war".
2. ..which is why I want to institute a UN with far more power than it actually has.
Oh, you "want", do you? Want a cracker, too??
No, I want you to feel crippling pain every time a child is slaugtered in war, you barbaric oaf.
Quote:And what do you want to be the source of that power? How exactly do you "want" the UN to have far more power.
The power of
'sweet reason'......
"All must submit to rule of law, for all to be free": Cicero.
2000 years later, you STILL can't see it...
Oh, did he? Clever Cicero. Where did he say that?
Quick google:
" In 'The Republic', Cicero argued that laws are not enough for a just state. There also must be liberty. "But if liberty is not equally enjoyed by all the citizens," he declared, "it is not liberty at all." Therefore, liberty cannot exist unless "the people have the supreme power" in government.
Cicero looked into the ideal form of government for ....establishing justice, and ensuring liberty. He started by examining three "good states" and their perverted forms, described earlier by the Greek historian Polybius. Quote:And how do you make all, including the unreasonable and the 'diversely minded' to submit to the law?
By promoting reason over instinct...eg housing and jobs for all, over the blind, greed based 'invisible hand' markets.
Quote:How would you make laws for all humanity? Who would have the mandate and power to make such laws?
1. State the basis of law at the UN, ie wellbeing and security for all.
2. design the necessary machinery to implement this law, noting that (sweet reason): "....if liberty is not equally enjoyed by all the citizens.....it is not liberty at all."
Quote:Don't tell me, lemme guess.
The UN!
👏👏👏👏
Next week we learn to play the flute and then we design a perpetual mobile.
Until then- cheerio!
Notice the conservative ideologue railing against rule of law for all, just like those barbaric fools in the past insisting that slavery is necessary (for their own good fortunes, of course).....
btw, speaking of law for all:
