Repeal "The Global Library"

A proposal to repeal a previously passed resolution

Category: Repeal

Resolution: #86

Proposed by: Pojonia

Description: UN Resolution #86: The Global Library (Category: The Furtherment of Democracy; Strength: Significant) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: The United Nations,

OBSERVING the recent passage of resolution 86, The Global Library,

NOTING WITH REGRET the gap between donations acquired and actual cost of building (at first presentation of proposal) 37,376 libraries, one per nation,

REALIZING that holographic technologies are still far from reach in specific nations and expensive to implement, thus delaying the project indefinitely,

AND IN THE INTEREST OF establishing a new Global Library proposal of a practical and efficient nature, hereby

CONDEMNS Resolution 86 on account of poor wording and unprofessional presentation, which reflects ill on U.N. policy as a whole in addition to being ambiguous and therefore easily abused, and

REPEALS the resolution on account of the impossibility of acquiring the funding and technologies needed to begin the project.

It is sad to think that resolutions like this have been allowed through. Ambitious plans, yes, but poorly written, with nearly no chance of execution. Legalese also SUPPORTS this repeal, and has voted yes on the matter.
