Trump turning US into 'world champion of extreme inequality', UN envoy warns


Special rapporteur Philip Alston, fresh from fact-finding tour, issues devastating critique of US society and condemns ‘private wealth and public squalor’

Philip Alston, the UN special rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights, has completed a two-week official tour of the US by releasing an excoriating attack on the direction of the nation. Not only does he warn that the tax bill currently being rushed through Congress will hugely increase already large disparities between rich and poor, he accuses Trump and his party of consciously distorting the shape of American society in a “bid to become the most unequal society in the world”.

Does anyone give a rats ass about UN opinions?

[SassyIrishLass]

Trump should evict the UN from US shores

 

[Tank]

Trump has been exposing inequality

 

[Aba Incieni]

Why would Americans - or anyone - want to be equal with other countries?

America First. Difficult concept.

there are a lot more countries that are ''unequal'' !!!

Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates-Americans and super rich...they probably make more money than a lot of African countries put together

F%^k the UN----if the US is so bad, why do MILLIONS want to come here every year?????

All but the 30% who still support Trump do care.

All the wealth is moving away from the middle class towards the poor. Why? Because the bastards destroyed the private sector unions and anti-trust. No one can move up against the super rich and giant corporations...Not only that no American can compete against slave labor in the third world.

Republican economics is destroying this country.

And who would this 30% be?

I corrected it .. I left out the word Trump.

Good. That means people can succeed. Instead of being mired in communist "equality" which means "everybody is miserable all the time and if you dare to rise above, you will be penalized and your assets seized and distributed amongst the drug addicts and perverts that are the backbone of Obama's Army"

I really wish I could see what's going on inside your head. Unfortunately, all I would probably find are cobwebs and old whiskey bottles.

Truly, no one cares what the UN says. Left up to the people, we should move them to Paris and use the building as the world's largest homeless shelter. It's a win-win all around.

My friends around the world say that in their respective nations America is becoming a real joke of opportunity and respect. Non of them want to come back right now.

The UN is appalled by the freedom they see! Horrors!

Are your friends state dependents, like you? I'm sure they aren't interested in "coming back" since they have been told that if they aren't contributing to our economy, they won't be receiving benefits. They've done enough. They should stay away.

The great Leftist Utopia....everyone is equal

A pipe dream

It only took less than one year? I could have sworn Obama ran things for the past 8 years before that?
