We Can Solve the World's Problems in 5 Years.....
By Brother Tracy Gibson...
The fiRst thing that needs to happen is for the United Nations to either be abolished or become, through some democratic, real, measurable, authenticated and fair process, a REAL and ACTUAL international body with a REAL and ACTUAL process through which to REALLY represent the people and countries of the world--not just a body through which the OVERPOWERED Security Council unduly manipulates almost every action and proposal that is either put forth or proposed by the United Nations [especially smaller non-allied countries like North Korea, Iran and Venezuela]. Whatever proposals that are put forth by the small independent countries need to be fully considered just like larger countries have their proposals considered.
[By the way the Security Council consists of the United States, Russia and Chine. Their powers in the United Nations have always been maxed out because of their veto powers when measures that make these SUPER POWERS uncomfortable are raised.]
The next thing is to do away with international corporate control of almost every darned tooting policy that effects wages, who gets paid, [and how much] and the hoarding and manipulation of money and the power and influence that comes along with money, especially in large amounts... This can be done through a process of limiting profits for corporations and limiting exploitation by having international standards for wages and international standards for factory construction and maintenance standards that include concerns for the environment as Well as decent, acceptable international safety, comfort and standards, and measures for the running, maintenance and sustainability of new and old factories.... Will people be safe in the work place, and ultimately, Will they be able to, through some, again, legal, consistent and measurable procedures, be able to begin a process to create more community control over the means of production. This is crucial.
The next important thing is to make it so an international body of taxers, controlled through this refurbished United Nations or the other body that replaces them, actually confiscate the money from ANY and ALL rich people who have more than $300 Million Dollars in the bank or any such traceable or untraceable as setts of more than $300 Million Dollars. This confiscated or 90 % taxed money Will be used to provide money for services, proper and decent food, proper and decent housing, proper, on-going and consistent up-keep of government buildings at all levels [local, state, and federal], proper and decent up-keep of the worlds' roads and bridges, and proper and decent health care for ALL the world's people. There is NO WAY these so-called job creators [the rich] need any more than $300 Million Dollars to move forward with the work they continue to do, so why do they need it? Most of their work and most of the mental work and the mentality behind what they are doing and planning is anti-human, anti-people and against the stabilization of the planet and the environment anyway. [There are some exceptions.] The work of most of the rich is also unsustainable in this new era of finding Ways of maintaining stability and creating sustainability. {I should point out that I think the good work of the humanitarian, the humanist, the lover of mankind and woman kind, the Progressive activists, the Civil Rights workers and others fighting for liberation such as those also fighting for Gay and Lesbian Rights, and the people who want to create opportunity and freedom for the entire world is done by people of ALL colors. There may well be cultural and racial motivations, many innate and many learned, that help make some races and cultures act in certain ways either for or against the decent sustainability of our world. Many of these racial and cultural differences and motivations concerning this decency issue are explained by such authors as Temple University's Professor Molefi Kete Asante [President of the Molefi Kete Asante Institute for Afrocentric Studies] and other researchers, writers and authors such as Brother Tony MonteRo also of Temple University; and author, writer, journalist Brother Lynn Washington.] The money I'm talking about ultimately belongs to the people--not the rich, so-called employers who ``make'' the money in the first place. The rich wouldn't have a penny if they didn't have workers from whom to exploit labor. There MUST be a controllable and verifiable Way to maintain, control and share this wealth. Any leadership MUST be constantly tested and judged and must be rotating in the process through which they serve the World to distribute this money. These funds will NOT only go to Black, Latins and other people of color, but Whites also who have been poor for a long time, for generations, or who are just down on their luck right now. There is enough wealth to take care of the entire world's people if we can ALL learn to share.
I hate to talk about race, but really there is no way to get around it. My Mother used to say, ``It is there genes against our genes.'' [She wasn't talking about pants either!!] I am a Black Gay man and many of the world's best, brightest and most courageous and intelligent thinkers are Black People. But we have had our views and our voices shut down, smothered, and usurped generation after generation.. This HAS to STOP and we have to use any means necessary, short of violence, in my opinion, to bring this great new earth about !!. It is time that these voices were heard and heard loudly and clearly and it is time that We were allowed to serve the public and welcomed properly into the World Community. We should be accepted if we are men, women, children, Gay or Lesbian, Transgendered or even bisexual. No matter what color we are and no matter what religion We are, no matter what race We are or what station or income level we come from in life.
Beginning these processes Will have a dramatically positive impact on creating more liberty, democracy, freedom, equality, Racial Justice and happiness throughout the world, but as the world's people we must be ever vigilant to keep the process open, clearly defined and available to the masses. Corruption, greed, mismanagement and ignorance MUST be rooted out at every chance and at every level We can. There must also be made every effort to end profiteering in the creation of war at every chance and opportunity we have. It is ALL about acting responsibly and with integrity...
