Breitbart-
The U.N. General Assembly on Friday adopted a budget of $3,073,830,500 for operations to cover the year 2020, after claiming throughout 2019 it was underfunded and in need of an urgent financial bailout via increased global taxpayer contributions.
The financial allocation is an increase of approximately $8 million on what was initially requested by Secretary-General António Guterres.
The budget approval follows a year in which the globalist organization has cried poor and demanded more cash injections, as Breitbart News reported.
Just two months ago a series of cutbacks began at the U.N.’s New York headquarters, starting with the heating being turned down, the diplomats’ bar shuttering early at 5pm and meetings canceled along with diminished first class global travel budgets. read more
So how much of that will we, the world’s largest economy, have to pay and how much will China, the world’s second largest economy, have to pay?
And then there comes the rest of the world as well.
The un has lived in the USA since its inception.
Time for this benevolent organization to spread its wings, share its magnanimous
presence with another part of the world.
I suggest any of the following:
Ukraine
Venezuela
Syria
Chad
Saudi Arabia
…………. to name but a few
US out of UN,UN out of US !
Pretty big budget for an organization that has no actual earned income.
ANd what will happen if the US decides to NOT “pay its fair share”?
Nice to live large on someone else’s money! Gazooks, they must all be Democrats!
Let me see if I understand this! The USA borrows money from other countries, including China, in order to fund 22% of the bloated U.N. budget so that those other countries don’t have to!
Nice budget. It’s as if the UN is productive and beneficial to anyone.
This is totally necessary, you guys! Do you want to risk a repeat of the 2003 UN Cafeteria looting?? This is what would happen, @Toxic Deplorable Racist SAH B Woodman:
“The decision to make the cafeterias into “no pay zones” spread through the 40-jacre complex like wildfire. Soon, the hungry patrons came running. “It was chaos, wild, something out of a war scene,” said one Aramark executive who was present. “They took everything, even the silverware,” she said. Another witness from U.N. security said the cafeteria was “stripped bare.” And another told TIME that the cafeteria raid was “unbelievable, crowds of people just taking everything in sight; they stripped the place bare.” And yet another astonished witness said that “chickens, turkeys, souffles, casseroles all went out the door (unpaid).”

“The mob then moved on to the Viennese Cafe, a popular snack bar in the U.N.’s conference room facility…”
Epic.
The UN; taking money from US taxpayers and giving it to third-world dictators since 1945.
Don’t forget that Alger Hiss (remember him?) wrote the UN Charter.
to “ah clem”
I love your idea
because I have often thought the same thing myself
the un should reside in the poorest country on the planet
that way the do gooders will live closer to their problems
That’s why it’s not a “Do-gooder” problem.
It’s a “Parasite attaching itself to the wealthiest host” problem.
