[GMW #2643] Nurture People With Little Money, With Funds From Ending Wasteful Military Expenditures



[GMW #2643] Nurture People With Little Money, With Funds From Ending Wasteful Military Expenditures
Idea Dream -Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3036 ~   

I cannot visualize how heads of states, Pentagon officials, generals, armaments manufacturers and many parliamentarians can sleep during the night when 1.3 billion people on this planet live on one dollar a day while one-half or more of all yearly world expenditures, a staggering eight hundred billion dollars, are wasted on armaments and training killers called militaries.

I will never understand it.  I will die wondering how mad power and money continue to rule this planet in one form or another and might bring it this time to its end because they are now also killing nature.  How can God in heaven allow this?

Volume II  Chapter2  Of Happiness
Suppose we both possess the same thing.  You consider what you have to be of little value and I consider what I have to be of great value.  Who is the happiest of us two?

[GMW #2508] Inter-Parliamentary Union Contribute To Global Decision Making Not Only National Executives

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1502 ~
21 August 1998

Parliamentarians, the elected representatives of the people, must absolutely be brought closer if not right in the middle of the world agencies. The fate of the Earth and of humanity cannot be left one hundred percent in the hands of national executives.

This cannot continue. Given the importance of global problems, parliamentarians must be well informed and actively contribute to the work of these agencies.

Rather than wait for the creation of a United Nations Consultative Parliament, the Inter-Parliamentary Union could be made immediately the Parliamentary Assembly of the United Nations and its family of 32 specialized agencies and world programs. Let us aim at that for adoption and entry into force during the year 2000.

Volume II Chapter 13 - Of Speaking
We are linked with everything in the heavens and on Earth.  And yet, like every blade of grass and grain of sand, we are each unique and unrepeatable in all eternity.  What a wonder to be alive!

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500
~ Idea 479 ~    1 November 1995

A minimum UN reform would be that all national delegations to the UN and to its agencies should include a number of Parliamentarians - Congress Persons who would report back to their Parliaments - Congress.  In the early days one could find Parliamentarians - Congress Persons in some delegations to the UN, but this has almost disappeared.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,  
Volume II Chapter 14 - Of Writing
Sometimes I wish there was something greater than words to express the magnificence of life. 

Music?  Art? 

Remembered will be only those who have chanted its magnificence. 

Alas, my mother did not let me study music and painting, my two great loves when I was a child.  She did not want me to become a penniless artist.

All that was left to me was speaking and writing.  I did my best with it and God led me to the greatest forum for it: the United Nations.

[GMW #1908] Democracy Replacing Moneycracy, Corporatecracy, Powercracy, World Public Opinion Polls And Referenda

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500
Introduction For Ideas 301 to 400

2.  Establishment of an Independent World Commission on Democracy

It is high time to review the concept of democracy which has been largely replaced by the rule of moneycracy, corporatecracy, powercracy. 

Even elected Parliamentarians, once they work with central governments, often do the contrary of what the people expect from them.

World public opinion polls and referenda should be held. 

If one were held on nuclear armaments, the overwhelming majority of people would ask for their elimination.  And yet, governments do not do it.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,  
Volume III Chapter I - The Span Of Life

The Lord has given me the miracle of life.
The Lord will take away the miracle of life,
Blessed be the Lord. 
I hope He will have other miracles in store for me.

The days are not long enough, my life is not long enough to do all the good I want to do for this beautiful planet and for humanity.
