http://www.foxnews.com/world/2012/0...session-it-is-already-thinking-up-new-global/ Somebody point me towards Galt's Gulch. Here's what I say to the UN: ┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐
Global taxation without elected representation is the UN dream. Will be a hard sell in this bad economic time. A crash will be worth the pain if it forces us to shed useless or even detrimental expenses such as the UN.
Of course they do. Socialism doesn't work near as well unless you have plenty of other people's money.
Of course they want Taxes. Cuz Taxes means Money/Power. To do what they want to gain more /Taxes/Money/Power!!!
So the answer is. Git the Eff out of the UN and kick them the Eff out of NYC and then Eff them all and go back on the gold standard. That ought to do it.
No, no, !! Do NOT run them off from NYC! Keep your friends close and potential enemies closer. If they pull out of Manhattan or are forced out, it will be a LOT more difficult to keep an eye on them. (However, reducing the funds that organization sucks up would be a good thing.)
Erm, I say out. No diplomatic immunity, no secret pouches/container that could carry who knows what. Just like MacBeth, 'Out Damn Spot' and take toto with you. If we want to know what they are doing, well isn't that what we have spies for? It's not like we are dropping lindsay lohan into kenya or something and asking her to blend in. We look just like them. I say get back on the horse you rode in on and head back across the pond to brussels. JMHO
+1! If they didn't have free ride in NYC I doubt any other country would put up with the expense and shenanigans. The UN would sag back into its proper nondescript alley. And if we cut our funding, 25% of their total budget, the UN would collapse. What third world uppity would want to serve when there were no more limousines, caviar, huge staffs, junkets, shopping befitting nobility, bribes etc?!
Ship their money-grubbing butts back to Belgium. We need an American President witht he brass ones to tell the leadership of the Useless Nations to go pound sand. We need him to cut ALL funding to this global monster - starve the monster and it dies. We The People are already seeing our hard-earned tax monies being stolen by various rogue criminal agencies and used to support welfare ho's with a passel of illigitimate young, their lazy 'baby daddies' too busy stealing and dealing drugs to work for a living, illegal aliens who sneak into this nation then demand all the 'benefits' that should go only to citizens, bailouts to Big Industry and Big Banks who send most of the ill-gotten money to their foreign branches, and even used to directly support foreign banks and failing nations. Now the Globalists want to tax the First World to give welfare to the 'Turd World'...... they can't bring the poor nations upto our level, so they intend to bring us down to their level, bu illegal 'redistribution of wealth'. Maybe we should just send a JADAM down the UN's throat as a warning - "BACK OFF!" Let Putin's new Russian goobermint buy them a nifty new building in sunny Moscow.
No! Cut back the spending to what the average 3rd world nation pays... don't ever give up our VETO powers.... that would be extremely bad mojo....
What exactly would the UN do without our money that we would want a veto? They already pass stupid resolutions. If we are not a member than not of their "courts" or resolutions mean anything to us and they would mot have the muscle to enforce anything against us. Remaining in the UN lends credibility to a crackpot third world wannabe tyrants.
I Beg to disagree with you there have been several times that our VETO has come in handy.... additionally with our current economy and Military needs for special elements in quantities not available in the US We cannot play big bully on the street like we could in the past... Unless the UN was totally scrapped by all countries (ain't gonna happen) our hip pocket VETO is not something we want to simply toss away ..... Down size the UN on our souil, limit our contributions to an amount that matches what other nations give, limit our military presence in any peace keeping force that is not in our best interests.... Yes... leave the UN and give up our VETO until it's disassembled....No YMMV
