More Madness at the UN: Big Government Is a Human Right?

"The UN, and I am not making this up, warns that cutting back government could violate 'the right to social security of the people in the United States.'

Yeah. Big government now is a 'human right' guaranteed by the UN. And some people wonder why the administration proposed cutting the organization's funding by half.

President Trump has been working with Republicans in Congress to repeal Obamacare... But, no-and again, I am not making this up-the UN's 'Special Rapporteur on the Right of Everyone to the Enjoyment of the Highest Attainable Standard of Physical and Mental Health' (SROTROETTEOTHASOPAMH), Dainius Puras, sent the president an 'urgent appeal' warning of the former's 'serious concern' about the impending violation of some Americans' rights by reducing their health insurance coverage. You see, Puras explained, 'there is a strong presumption that retrogressive measures taken in relation to the right to health are not permissible.'

In normal English, that means once government expands, it can never recede. That premise has been the gospel of American liberals for years. Now we find out the principle is an inviolable 'human right'!...

Unlike many members of the so-called Human Rights Council, the U.S. holds elections. The American people choose their government. If they believe Mr. Puras' allegations of terrible rights violations are true, they will replace their leaders.

In the meantime, Congress should review Washington's financial contribution to the UN. And the former real estate developer in the White House might have some ideas on how to better use the prestigious address of 405 East 42nd St. in New York City. After all, it comes with 18 acres of prime riverfront property."
