It's interesting how the United Nations so frequently looks down its upheld nose at the United States on matters international. Ah, but when the United Nations needs cash, to whom does it turn without fail?
When will the United States stop playing patsy? It just so happens that such an opportunity soon will present itself.

Kick that commie baby-killing monstrosity out of the U.S. and have nothing more to do with them.

Ok, the U.N. needs more space and it appears that the U.S. isn't about to remove itself from it's membership. So if it needs more space, I say fine...... just not in midtown. How about up a few blocks like Harlem maybe. It not only will give the local economy a boost, but then the U.N. will be closer to our first Black president.

I think the UN should be forced out of the US. It would change the whole dynamic of the place and marginalize it. If you put it in the Third World, you would end the phenomenon of the Third World diplomats selling out the interests of their own country and pandering to the wishes of the very radical Secretariat, so that they can get a job with the Secretariat after their posting ends and stay in the US.

And soon afterward, our dues will increase by $1 billion to cover the UN debt to us.

Harlem?
No, not in Harlem.
If we're going to provide free land to the UN, it should
be cheap land. I don't see why they need fancy offices, either.
How about we set up a couple of hundred tents outside Minot AFB?

I vote for moving their fat pampered asses to old cruise ships with the homeless. Then they won't take up valuable parking in NY NY. Maybe they should be stationed over the Mariana Trench so they have a proper prospective when voting under the "protection" of our attack subs.

A couple of days ago, a radio host stated that the average UN employees is paid (not earns) over $117,000 p.a.
Then add allowances, for children's private education, housing, etc.
It strikes me that New York is a far too costly location, for these people from far ranging economies, lifestyles, religions, etc. Little wonder their home governments can't afford to fully support the UN effort; hence the loan request of the US.
So aside from abolishing the UN, some seriously "rationalizing" would seem to be in order. Cost cutting, in the form of a lower cost location, would make sense.
How about Buffalo, NY?

As long as the Fed can hide behind U.N. treaties and agreements to fulfill their property stealing, craming everyone into cities and stealing resources, globalist agenda, the U.N. will be right were it is in D.C.
The fed needs to be made to understand the jig is up, we see whats going on and it will stop now. Then they will have no more use for the U.N. Like Jesse Helms told the U.N., "You are merely a tool of the US, when you stop being useful, you will be gone". Well, we don't like the way that "tool" is being used against us, D.C. best wake up to that fact.

How about Buffalo, NY? California. It would feel like home.
