As preposterous as these ideas may sound to freedom-loving Americans, most of the world considers them to be an improve-ment over their current circumstance. The fuel that fires the global governance movement, however, is not the desires ofoppressed people, it is the money supplied by the well-to-do elite who feel the need to "do something" to help the lessfortunate people of the world. The strategy for advancing the movement is supplied by those who expect to control the machineryof global governance. It is no coincidence that financial contributions in support of the Charter for Global Democracy areto be made to the London office of United Nations Association.

Dozens of documents, all promoting some form of world government, have been circulating for most of this decade. All contain thesesame principles.
