President Obama used his final appearance at the UN Security Council to give a speech lauding globalism, saying that Americans should give up some
freedom and submit to international governance.
Obama, making his eighth appearance at the UN, openly stated that in order to be more secure Americans need to give up some of their liberties

Obama outlined his belief that security for nations ultimately lies in global government institutions like the UN.
“We can only realize the promise of this institution’s founding to replace the ravages of war with cooperation if powerful nations like my own
accept constraints,” Obama said.
The president added that “powerful nations” like the United States must be prepared to give up autonomy in order to continue to prosper and
realise security.
“I’m convinced in the long run giving up some freedom of action, not giving up our ability to protect ourselves or pursue our core interests but
binding ourselves to international rules, over the long-term, enhances our security.” Obama declared.
His words provide a stark contrast to those of US founding father Benjamin Franklin who famously warned that “Those who would give up essential
Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”
Obama admitted that their is massive resistance in the US and beyond to such globalism, but insisted that his belief in such a world order is the
correct one.
“Sometimes I’m criticized in my own country for professing a belief in international norms and multilateral institutions, but I’m convinced in
the long run…” Obama said
“We have to put our money where our mouths are.” he exclaimed.
Elsewhere during the speech Obama took blatant shots at the GOP nominee Donald Trump, saying that Trump stands against everything he believes in.
Obama denounced “aggressive nationalism” and warned that “crude populism” should not be allowed to prosper.
He also stated that physical barriers do not offer real security, saying “A nation ringed by walls would only imprison itself.”
Obama couched his advocation of all out globalism in a Utopian ideal of ‘integration’, intimating that advocating any other form of governance is
backwards looking.
“I believe that at this moment we all face a choice,” Obama said. “We can choose to press forward with a better model of cooperation and
integration or we can retreat into a world sharply divided and ultimately in conflict along age-old lines of nation and tribe and race and religion. I
want to suggest to you today that we must go forward and not back.”

We don't need to give up any freedoms for the government to watch over us or protect us. I will never give up any of mine. The U.S. Must fight back
at any attempts of socialist laws. The U.S. Has a choice, continue the same path as we had for the last 8 years or turn right, and try to steer away
in a new direction.
