The will of the powerful

Voluntarist statements are Ban Ki-moon, for the economically disadvantaged, as a lifeline for whom Stone is drowning.

Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon (born in South Korea in 1944), in a message to mark the World Day of Social Justice, said the gap between rich and poor expands not only between countries but also within these. He stressed that the circumstances in which a person is born, where you live or what gender or ethnic group belongs must never determine the level of income or access to education, health care, decent work, housing, drinking water or political participation.

This information is extracted from the digital daily El Arsenal.net, edition of 24.02.2014.

It is important to have a World Day of Social Justice to ensure that social injustice have long life, while this goal (achieve Social Justice) can never be achieved by dedicating one day a year.

The day after performing the ceremonial events that are customary in these useless agencies worldwide, we will all wash our sins and continue to participate in Social Injustice, if only as irresponsible witnesses, ie accomplices.

So, according to Ban Ki-moon, the circumstances in which one is born, where you live or what gender or ethnic group belongs, should never determine the level of income or access to education, health care, decent work, housing, water, or political participation?

It seems that "should never determine" because he says so, as a God who said "Let there be light" (and the light did).

The facts seem to insist that all those factors that Her Majesty UN listed, determine and make itself strongly.

I propose to think that these absurdities are unheeded, that are not part of what we speak and write to make things better. How long lose anesthetized by an address so out of place, just because it comes from an important personality?

What it says Ban Ki-moon to say that personal circumstances should never determine how it goes in life. For him, being Catholic is not relevant in Israel, dwarf in the Nordic countries, silly in a hyper-competitive, homosexual in a homophobic community, goofy but with sports, dull or myopic vocation in any country community.

According to this great character in a great institution (I say sarcastically), no difference should matter because that egalitarian intentions are powerful and proactive hyper.

Such statements are for those who suffer the brunt of the unequal distribution of wealth, like throwing a lifeline Stone who is drowning.
