Tax time is behind us now, and most American citizens would be happy not to have to think about the taxman’s hand in their pockets for another year. The IRS today is out of control. There are over 30,000 pages of tax code, and it takes an accountant or a tax service to file your taxes.
Wouldn't it be nice if we could simplify the tax code and eliminate the IRS? Good news! The United Nations wants to do that for us. However, this creates another problem. The UN wants to create it’s own global IRS. Yes, you read that right--the UN wants to control and impose a wide array of taxes, and ultimately to tax even your income.
That’s because the UN has its sights set on becoming a bona fide global government within the next few years. According to "the most trusted man in America," the famous CBS news anchor Walter Cronkite, "We must strengthen the United Nations as a first step toward a World Government."
Any sovereign government must have the money to finance its operations. As long as the UN has no independent source of funding, it has no more status than a beggar or a charity case. But once it can collect taxes as a matter of international law, and no longer has to rely on the voluntary contributions of nation states, the UN will quickly emerge as a global ruling authority with its own overpowering military force.
"Once the United Nations has independent financing, and an adequate stream of revenue to maintain its own standing army, it will be the world government that has been the dream of globalists for the entire century," insists UN expert Henry Lamb. . . . .

Yep, right after they complete their global gun control act.
Has anyone seen my nose?
They'll have to pry my wallet from my cold, dead hands.
Here 'ya go.
How about NO IRS?
(Feel better?) ;)
Be careful what you wish for. After the UN peacekeepers get done raping your sons, they will kill you.
Now you're talking.
Are you into the Fair Tax Act?
International Appropriations for Security and Prosperity Tax.......or something like that.
It will begin by using your telephone bill or utility bill as it's subtle usher into one's budget. After being there for a decade, it will migrate to your paycheck and SEC brokerage fees on transactions involving stocks and securities.
Didn't you forget the "/sarcasm" tag at the end of your post?

Mr. Bolton said you could lose ten floors of the U.N. building a not notice it. I'm thinking the whole f*ing building and I'll notice it. I'll be dancing on it.
Time for Wlater "One World" Cronkite to DIE DIE DIE. Not a threat, just a fervant wish. The clow in off his rocker and has been for a long time.
How can any sane person look at the abject failure of the UN over the last several years and reasonably suggest it should be given world wide governance?
Bolton is not tought enough on the UN. We need to appoint a REAL B*ST*RD to that place.
That looks to me like just shifting the burden elsewhere, elsewhen.
I'd prefer to see federal government shrunken to such a minuscule size that taxation becomes a mere afterthought.
In all honesty, I'm all for paying my taxes to pay for military salaries and equipment, but I am NOT! okay with having it used to subsidize NPR and PBS, Big Bird be damned. (I'm not to keen on paying Sen. Kennedy's salary either.)
Like we don't already have enough layers of control.
International, national, state, local. Yeah buddy even lets throw a few more layers of crap out there.
I would hole myself up in my house and and pick off any blue beret wearing bastard that approached. I'm sure they would smoke me out in time, but I would rather die than pay one cent out of my own pocket to the UN.
Tagline change.
No need for a /sarc tag, as none was intended.
