TN Note: This is an analysis on the UN’s 2030 Agenda from the New American, the magazine of the John Birch Society. It frames the 2030 Agenda in terms of historic Socialism rather than Technocracy and suggests that remedy will ultimately be achieved only through elected representatives. While there are a multitude of similarities between Socialism and Technocracy, it was abhorrent to early Technocrats to be called Socialists or Communists because they did not consider themselves as such. Secondly, Technocracy marginalizes elected politicians while insulating itself from political control or accountability.
