I wonder if Penny Wong has taken any formal academic study of International Relations.

He survived. He reproduced.
So his life was successful. The question is: as he lived life, did he do more good than harm? I think he did more good. So, overall, a very successful life. Will people be able to say the same about us I wonder? Posted by Ipso Fatso, Monday, 4 December 2023 12:02:36 PM

Despite what Keith Suter says- the US shouldn't join the International Criminal Court. The US shoudn't have signed the UN CCPR in 1993. The institutions of International Government should be between not within nations. Bilateral agreements work relatively well. International Government is extremely dangerous and tyrannical and will be subject to bracket creep like no other national government. As Henry Kissinger's fellow Hebrew traveller Ayn Rand says "those that refuse to accept limits to their own power shouldn't be given it". There needs to be defined limits to power as it rises through the hierarchy from the individual, through the several layers, to the world level- that constrain the ability of government to "steal their power from our liberty".
