General Assembly of the United Nations,
REFFERRING to Section I of Resolution #49 (Rights and Duties of UN States) in order to better illustrate this resolution,
DISTURBED by the adverse effects of certain aspects of free trade in a number of UN nations, which includes the exploitation of labor in several underdeveloped nations, the crippling of smaller businesses which cannot compete with multinational corporations with access to cheaper labor in underdeveloped nations, and massive job loss in developed nations, which has been proven to lead to increased rates of crime, poverty, and drug abuse,
DETERMINED, through this resolution, to enact legislation which can lend a helping hand to those displaced through aspects of free trade and outline an effective plan to advance the economies of underdeveloped nations, as well as reduce the rate of poverty, crime, and drug abuse in developed nations,
MANDATES the following:
1) All UN nations have the authority to enact protective tariffs on foreign goods and services in order to protect their labor forces and develop their industries, given these tariffs are not forbidden by any UN legislation;
2) All UN nations have the authority to enact embargoes on foreign goods and services in order to protect their labor forces and industries, or as a means of protesting the acts of nations, given these embargoes are not forbidden by any UN legislation;
3) All UN nations have the authority to set their own taxation policies on all foreign goods and services entering their nation, given these taxation policies are not forbidden by any UN legislation;
4) The UN shall retain its rights to abolish tariffs and embargoes for economic sectors in order to prevent the withholding of necessities and beneficial goods such as, but not limited to food, clothing, or medicine from certain nations;
5) The UN Free Trade Commission (UNFTC) shall hold the authority to arbitrate disputes arising from the previous four mandates;
ENCOURAGING the deployment of tariffs in order to prevent inequitable and unfair relationships between nations engaged in trade, as well as embargoes as a viable course of action in order to protest the acts of nations,
AFFIRMING the rights of all nations to enter into free trade agreements if they so desire,
DISCOURAGING the practice of “dumping” goods and services in matters of international trade in the UN and throughout the world,
CONVINCED that these measures will bring about a more equitable and fair relationship between nations engaged in trade, as well as
HEREBY enacts the National Economic Rights Act
