Economics of Non-governmental Organizations
What is the first thing that comes to
mind when the term NGO appears? Well, many will respond, the United Nations. Directly from a UN site is their definition for
Non-governmental organizations. How uplifting and benign the altruistic effort, the deep-seated purpose
and intention of such associations, frequently projects that noble endeavors need to enhance the governance process. The term
governance essentially is a loaded political concept that benefits a model of economic activity that requires a managed society
as opposed to a free, independent and individualistic economy. "A
non-governmental organization (NGO, also often referred to as "civil society organization" or CSO) is a not-for-profit
group, principally independent from government, which is organized on a local, national or international level to address
issues in support of the public good. Task-oriented and made up of people with a common interest, NGOs perform a variety of
services and humanitarian functions, bring public concerns to governments, monitor policy and programme implementation, and
encourage participation of civil society stakeholders at the community level. Some
conduct research and analysis in the legal and other fields (e.g. sociology, economics) relevant to the rule of law. In many
cases, they produce reports with policy recommendations, for use in their advocacy."
Of course, not all NGO’s fall into an identical pattern. Some can and do provide valuable
services. However, exponents of coordinated liaison with civil authority that develops legal eminence for a social vision
that defies the basic human nature of inherent autonomy, is dangerous. NGO’s seldom practice real charity, although
they excel in social engineering. Looking at the money trail provides
evidence of actual intents. Investopedia explains How do NGOs get funding? "The annual budget of an NGO can be
in the hundreds of millions (or even billions) of dollars, fundraising efforts are important for the NGO's existence and success.
Funding sources include membership dues, the sale of goods and services, private sector for-profit companies, philanthropic
foundations, grants from local, state and federal agencies, and private donations." That
sounds all well and good. Nevertheless, when you get into the weeds on how funding actually works, the touchy feely aspects
of raising money have a very different look. One example is the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), funding programs. "Non-governmental
organizations (NGOs) are critical change agents in promoting economic growth, human rights and social progress. USAID partners
with NGOs to deliver assistance across all regions and sectors in which we work and to promote inclusive economic growth,
strengthen health and education at the community level, support civil society in democratic reforms and assist countries recovering
from disasters." Among the types of NGOs that the Agency
partners with are:
1. Cooperative Organizations 2. Foundations 3. Local and Regional
Organizations 4. Private Voluntary Organizations 5.
U.S. and International Organizations
Government
grants presumably for promoting or enacting democratic reforms, discloses an ulterior motive behind the funding. That is natural
and understandable in an era of competing political and economic systems. However, with the emergence of a unified New World
Order agenda, the practice of doling out government money that undercuts the very existence of national sovereignty has taken
a nefarious turn. The always perceptive, Pat Buchanan weighs in and provides
the evidence. US Funding NGOs to Advance
New World Order? "Cairo
contends that $65 million in "pro-democracy" funding that IRI, NDI, and Freedom House received for use in Egypt
constitutes "illegal foreign funding" to influence their elections. Yet this is not the first time U.S. "pro-democracy"
groups have been charged with subverting regimes that fail to toe the Washington line." The motive to change political, social and economic relationships goes beyond countries
influencing foreign policy objectives. When the likes of Ted Turner, George Soros, Warren Buffet and Bill & Melinda Gates use their foundation funds to back NGO’s that carry out the
globalist agenda, private sector multi billionaires become an existential threat to humanity.
Add to this band of bandit brothers, who all have transformational goals, fostered with the wealth
they accumulated by practicing crony corporatism, that diminishes our domestic standard of living, with their internationalization
sentiments - Jeffrey Walker, Vice Chairman, United Nation's Secretary General's Envoy for Health Finance and Malaria, who
proposes Building Generosity Networks. "It’s time
for us to turn our attention to building and growing Generosity Networks that link the philanthropic passions of major donors
with others who share those passions and are willing to work, collaboratively, to address the major causes of our day."
Oh, that United Nations record of peaceful philanthropy for universal serfdom has
worked so well. The pandemic resolutions for eugenic terminations are often the real intent behind many NGO front organizations.
The economics of world population dictate that market based
businesses have no place in a world dominated by transnational monopolies and corporatist cartels. Non-governmental organizations
are liberated to advance the "philanthropic passions" of the donors that would normally be suspect if implemented
by mega corporations. Those "so called" generosity
networks are used as subsiding endowments for the integration of third world communities into the NWO feudal system of minimal
expectations. That old Peace Corp attitude that was based upon
helping others to help themselves is now a mission for global vassal induction. So much for the myth of self-determination,
in the land of the rationed and expendable economy, where only the conglomerate matters. As affluence disparity widens from the mega rich, the former middle class recedes into subsistence level, on a path
resembling those that international NGO’s are supposed to help. A true merchant based economy, with broad based business
ownership, is the only solution to the controlled slave state. Actual
non-governmental organizations, that provide useful functions, must shed their tax-exempt preferences and government subsidies.
Helping individuals with volunteer charity under a viable free enterprise economic model is preferable and necessary. Breaking up monopoly trusts, eliminates the need for generosity networks, because
individuals would be able to earn a livable way of life, independent of government and globalist welfare. Most NGO’s
schemes are fronts for NWO causes. James Hall – November
