The leaches, the blank minds, the less capable are at it again. Those who can't build or create something are demanding that they have a right to control it. Kofi Annan, the ignorant African leading the cabal of tyrants, despots, and corrupt states called the United Nations, has announced that the UN will seek to control the Internet .

"U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan set the tone in a speech Thursday, criticizing the current system through which Internet standards are set and domain names are handled, a process currently dominated by the United States, Canada, Europe and Japan. Such structures "must be made accessible and responsive to the needs of all the world's people," Annan said."

Who the hell does he think he is?

Ayn Rand explained this way of thinking: blank minds don't understand what it means to create something and own it. They think that the work of others is something they are entitled to own, destroy, or control.

The United States has created the internet. No other nation in the world did this. Our government and private industry created it, and the beauty of what they created is that it is minimally controlled. It is the freest means of open communication that has ever been created. But that's not good enough for some.

You see, the tyrants of the world fear free and open communication. Just as Portugal in the last century purposefully kept its peasants uneducated for fear that they would be smart enough to revolt, these despots are afraid that if their people learn what is happening in the world, they will be dissatisfied with the plunderers ruling them.

Tyrants don't care if their people are miserable. The standard of living of rulers hasn't changed in a few thousand years. Darius, the king of Persia, lived just as opulently as Saddam Hussein did until a year ago. Freedom makes the people rich, and rulers fear rich citizens.

So their motivation is to continue oppressing their own people, but their means is to plunder. They want to control something which is better than they are. It would be like Vikings being in charge of Cathedrals or Vandals taking charge of the aqueducts. Or infants in charge of a railroad.

These morons have a lot of nerve, and this is only one more example of why we should resume our refusal to pay "dues" to the UN. All we've done is finance more schemes to undermine freedom.
