Any attempt to extort money from me by those institutions is an act of treason and war.

This is really starting to tick me off. If our Republican friends in Congress can't stop this trend, then what's the sense of being involved in politics at all?
In conclusion, a global tax would not be possible if the barriers between the nation-states had not been dismantled. The economic barriers fell with the creation of the IMF/World Bank in 1944; the political barriers fell with the creation of the United Nations; the trade barriers fell with the creation of the World Trade Organization; and the legal barriers fell with the creation of the International Criminal Court. These ideas will be on the table at the G8 in June and at the UN in September. Has the UN found a way to justify their existence? Yes. Can Dr. Kaul feel gratified that she has done her job well? Yes. Will the people of the world ever recover? No.
The UN is a joke. How can an organization hold any credibility when it has been so inept, holds no standards for membership and consistently appoints some of the worse violators of human rights to the very posts in opposition?
It’s like having the inmates run the asylum. Any extra funding from taxes or otherwise would certainly make matters worse. Using the Star Trek analogy…it would be like having the Klingons, Cardassians, Romulans and Borg as members of the Federation.
The US should kick the UN out of America, cease all funding to it and create an alliance of democratic countries apposed to communism, socialism and despotism with rigid membership requirements. USA, Australia, Japan, et.
Only then would I be open to being taxed.
"A larger version of our Congress?"
No...a larger version of the DNC.
There can be no wealth where there are no property rights.
Very true.
"But its only a DOLLAR: I can hear the sheeple bleat already.
But remember- the INCOME TAX was originally a tax of 1/2 of 1% of any income OVER a million dollars (this was bak in what- 1914? who made a million dollars a year then- about 12 people?)
An look what income tax rates are now
You must understand that the U.N. is a creation by those with a Socialist/Communist world view. The formulator of the U.N. charter (Hess) was subsequently found to be a Soviet spy stationed to no more prestigious position than advisor to the then President of the United States of America.
World Communists/Socialists know they could never defeat the U.S. in a head on frontal military conflict, so they opt to lull us to sleep and entangle us with foreign treaties trying to get us to quietly let them take us over without a shot being fired.
The U.N. is an organization designed to primarily overthrow all opposition to world wide socialism at the behest of international corporations who will subsequently establish world wide monopolies.
The Federal Reserve Bank, World Bank, IMf, are all subversive capitalistic organization bent on financing the establishment of world socialism and will finance any war to overthrow those who oppose them.
"Massive international corporations hate competition"
I agree. But, as we all know, monopolies create economic and innovative stagnation due to lack of competition. Exactly the problem with socialism. Its a catch 22. Pure capitalism without political reigns is prone to massive economic and political corruption and pure socialism without economic freedom is prone to the same. There needs to be a balance.
I've been mentally toying with several variations of democratic republic government configurations that could theoretically help address such issues.
I certainly hope that the U.S. is working to derail this nonsense, but I don't recall hearing any strong denunciations emanating from Washington yet.
No...Congress.
The DNC isn't a governing body...Who gives a sh!t what they do to each other?
