The day the UN totalitarians start taxing the free world is the day the free world will cease to exist.

It will also be the day that the American people declate war on the Leftist fanatics who run that particular Stalinist "institution."

I would like to think so, but I have little confidence in that anymore.

I agree with the former statement, but the latter is wishful thinking. No more than 30% of the Americans in the 13 colonies were pro-Revolution. Most folks were pro-status quo or just wanted to keep their heads down. Assuming the American people will stand up against UN taxation is as bad as assuming sheep will fight being sheared. I would not assume that, after a tax is agreed to by the elected President and Congress, an anti-UN stance would get the support of even 20% of Americans, given the years of follow-government-blindly publik-skule indoctrination most Americans have been through.
