DESTROYING WESTERN MANUFACTURING THROUGH THE UNITED NATIONS

The Nationalist February 21, 2014



We hear it all the time. Manufacturing against the wall, the car industry surviving on government handouts, retail and other industries surviving on cheap imports, and businesses, industries and livelihoods are being reduced to nothing. And that’s just a footnote from a growing narrative of Australians doing it tough due to internal and international trade regulation. The Lima Declaration is one of many agreements which reduces Australian sovereignty and devastates Australian industries, businesses and families. With the Trans-Pacific Partnership looming on the horizon, it’s time to start talking about what it can mean for us.

In 1975, the second general conference of the United Nations industrial development organization (UNIDO) was held and signed by the Developed nations. Almost every developed country, including Australia, signed the Lima Declaration. This sowed the seeds of the Globalization process, and only in the last decade are we beginning to realise the magnitude of what this means for us.

Labor, Liberals, the Nationals and Greens all have, in some form, subscribed and endorsed this international fascism and economic genocide. This is about a consolidation of power by the UN and to further bankrupt The West on the long term. Few have taken a hard line against it.

Posting onto a Tea Party website that supports free trade, I must make something clear. This isn’t about re-installing protectionism such as tarrifs. This is about how the UN uses declarations and agreements to implement it’s distribution of wealth agenda. Extracting wealth from carbon trading is obviously one of the most dangerous methods, others are more subtle. Markets being able to operate freely and fairly internationally is great to have. I draw the line at corporate multinationals and foreign governments manipulating their markets to edge out others with things like currency manipulation, poverty and using improper methods such as pesticide and treatment practices that are illegal in other countries such as Australia. Free markets aren’t free when foreign governments and companies get in bed with one another and using agreements such as the Lima Declaration to try form a niche. With the Trans-Pacific Partnership looming in 2014, we must begin to ask ourselves how much national sovereignty are we willing to give up to lock into such international agreements on controlling trade. A fourth tier of unaccountable government in partnership with multinational corporations and the UN is nothing short of International Fascism and consolidation of power. There are few winners from the TPP.

Globalization is the belief that wealth and resources should be distributed evenly across the world between countries. The Declarations signed are aimed at doing exactly that. However what it has really done is allow multinational giants to undercut their competition by relying on exploiting cheap foreign labour, lax regulation on quality control of items such as food and pesticides, tax havens and so forth. The net result isn’t positive for Australians, where more and more industries are on the verge of shutting down from a range of domestic pressures, and the added ridiculous pressure of the carbon tax and a hyper-inflated dollar.
Approximately 99% of Australians do not know what these under-the-table treaties are about and their full implications on their livelihoods, and they are not told, deliberately. There are currently hundreds of such agreements between Australia and the UN, which is turning Australia into a dependant nation, reliant on cheap imports and heavily pesticided food products.

Free trade agreements and tariff protection removals can only work when both countries have a near-equal currency and cost of labour is the same. This framework which Australia now operates under does not take into account differences in currencies and costs of workforce, where some countries their people get paid the equivalent of a few dollars a day.

Some of the declarations include;

-Section 28, reducing exports from developed nations by 25-30%, Increase exports in developing countries by 350%, so that by the year 2000, at least 25% of global trade will come from third world countries.

-Section 35-36; ‘Advocating the net transfer of resources in the form of technical and financial resources, as well as capital goods.’

-Section 59: ‘A Progressive elimination or reduction of tariff and non-tariff barriers and other obstacles to trade.’

-Section 60l. ‘Preference should be given by the more industrialized developing countries, as far as possible, to imports of goods produced by the less industrialized countries.’

There has been no consideration what would happen to these industries, and people’s livelihoods, that have been deliberately and methodically destroyed by these globalization policies supported by BOTH major parties.

There is even one section which became a precursor to the global warming fraud by government, Section 39.‘That the international community, and especially the developed countries, must mobilize human and material resources in order to cope with problems which threaten the environment. In this connection, the developed countries should intensify their efforts to prevent environmental pollution and should refrain from actions which according to scientific knowledge would create pollution problems or cause upheavals in developing countries’.

How would they know in 1975 that there would be some alarmist catastrophe decades into the future? That there would be a man-made climate change catastrophe drama in the near future? It again calls into question the validity of their scare-mongering campaign that so far the only people benefiting are banks, hedge funds, renewable companies who get massive grants, governments and the scientists they employ (No conflict of interest, right?) The losers have, predictably, been the producers and exporters in the developed nations, along with every business and household who have to deal with the domino effect of cost increases. Developing nations, for the most part, have been exempt from these obligations, making an already-unlevelled playing field even worse. This is despite these nations still having industries in place which contribute to so called global warming, but for them they don’t pay for environmental damages because they are poor. What? Isn’t this supposed to be about the environment? Or something much more sinister such as shifting industrialisation out of first rate economies, and watch the chaos ensue?

Currently, only 13,000 people are now employed in the live-export industry, according to the ABC. This is out of a population of over 23 million people. Our Car industry survives on government handout program and has since commenced shutting down from the industrialised pressures listed above. Smelting is no longer done within Australia, our largest cotton farm was sold to the Chinese government, our minerals are quarried and exported to be processed overseas, with agriculture left completely unprotected and ignored. Yet still, this is only scratching the surface. 90% of agriculture and manufacturing jobs are gone in Australia over the last few decades. Unemployment has increased and 457 visas have flooded the nation. As a result this means more Centrelink, less wealth generated, and consumers trading less amongst each other, which has a domino effect for businesses losing customers.

A combination of a skyrocketing Australian dollar and a removal of protection tariffs have greatly diminished many Australian industries. These include mining, manufacturing (particularly cars), agriculture, dairy, tourism, and many other forms of production and processing industries, with the goal of turning our nation into a service industry which imports everything. Everything is being affected. This has not occurred by accident. Both parties supported the Lima Declaration, both are very supportive of pro free-trade spread-the-wealth-internationally policies. Both have enacted legislation that are slowly and meticulously strangling our industries to death, and closing down people’s livelihoods.

At the end of the day, a nation is not going to advance as much as it can if it turns into a basket case economy of just mines in one basket and services in the other.
