Lets talk about the FTAA and its relationship to outsourcing.

First there was the Pan American Union. It was transformed into the Organization of the American States by the Council of the Americas, a so called business organization that has called all the shots on NAFTA and the FTAA. They pretty much direct the OAS on what to do.

The OAS in its charter, says that in order for a peaceful association of nations to occur, that there must be harmonization of the nations. Where have we heard that before? Downward harmonization, the race to the bottom, whatever, are the result of the massive outsourcing of American jobs and manufacturing. I believe that outsourcing is encouraged by our federal government as a way of accomplishing this harmonization so that the FTAA will come into being in January 2005.

The OAS is acting very much like the federal government its supposed to be right now. If you read the charter, it has franken privileges in every member state, says that International law is the standard of conduct of States in their reciprocal relations (not the US Constitution for the United States), it says The elimination of extreme poverty is an essential part of the promotion and consolidation of representative democracy and is the common and shared responsibility of the American States, hence the migration pact (the illegal alien amensty act), transfer of social security funds to illegal aliens who leave the US, the MIllenium challenge account announced in Monterrey Mexico in 2001 which will give away $5 billion in foreign aid by next year.

Then don't forget their final statement in article 3-- Social justice and social security are bases of lasting peace. Social justice which is the antithesis of America's founding, equal justice.

Who is involved making the FTAA a reality?

It sounds as if the proponents of the NAFTA and FTAA acts are supporting socialism. How is that possible?
