Oh and a "framework" is a UN globalese word for government. When a supranational bureaucracy starts setting up a "new government" where the US is only a "member state" with a "permanent minister" who was never elected by anyone, and that bureaucracy is influencing federal policy on immigration and remittances, you are effectively talking treason against the American people, not "free trade".

If you say so. What exactly do you base this conclusion upon?

When a supranational bureaucracy starts setting up a "new government"

What new government would that be? AFAIK, the only governments that have power over me these days is the Federal Government of the USA and the government of the District of Columbia (where I live).

where the US is only a "member state"

"Member state" is just a term of art used in the text of various treaties. There is nothing sinister about that term.

with a "permanent minister" who was never elected by anyone

Why would we need to directly elect the head of an international organization? Did you directly vote for the head of NATO?

and that bureaucracy is influencing federal policy on immigration and remittances

Anyone is free to try to convince the American government to change its policies. Why do you consider this to be somehow evil?

you are effectively talking treason against the American people, not "free trade".

How does anything you have described here equal treason ? Please be specific. Following your logic, if the Canadian ambassador to the US tries to convince our government to change a certain policy, anyone who agrees with him is comitting treason.
