Because sovereign nations and their citizens aren't going to kowtow to some unelected supranational organisation?
7 billion people in the world and they should all be ruled by a bunch of bureaucrats???
I hope that day never comes.
- croes 5y agoSure, how to you explain the WTO and the IMF? 7 billion people in the world are already ruled by a bunch of bureaucrats. But it's ok if it's for profit and not human rights, I guess.
- snapcaster 5y agoI think both are bad. Have you ever met someone who dislikes the UN but loves the WTO and IMF? I think you're arguing against a strawman with this comment
- croes 5y agoI don't think so. The US and the EU seldom have a problem following the WTO or the IMF, but hardly do the same with the UN.
- refurb 5y agoWell IMF is entirely voluntary. They can recommend courses of action but the country can decide to pursue that course or not. For WTO, no army is going to invade because you didn’t remove tariffs.
