Here, John Holdren, who in 2009 would be appointed by U.S. President Barack Hussein Obama as Director of the White House Office of Science & Technology Policy, Assistant to the President for Science and Technology, and Co-Chair of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (aka “Science Czar”), advocated “a massive campaign” to “de-develop the United States.” Holdren et al. said “our economists… must design a stable, low-consumption economy in which there is a much more equitable distribution of wealth than in the present one. Redistribution of wealth both within and among nations is absolutely essential, if a decent life is to be provided to every human being.” |
