The enclave is known for its heavy concentration of U.N. staff, many of whom receive U.N. housing allowances on top of whatever savings they might enjoy at the expense of New York state taxpayers...

So, let me get this straight. The US/NY taxpayer, American citizens all, paid this anti-US zealot for decades, to be an anti-American zealot. Have I got that right?

What idiots

Starving kids in Iraq, making poor people homeless in the US, letting 800,000 people of color get slaughtered in Rwanda, it's the UN way.

Amazing. I couldn't even afford the "subsidized" rent rate.

When are we going to wake up to the corruption?

US out of the UN, UN out of the US.

Not just the New York taxpayers covering kofi, but also many other foreign UN staffers, too.

"One question Mr. Annan has never addressed is why he and his wife felt comfortable availing themselves of this generous arrangement." Could it be because he's a corrupt bastard and we've never bothered to curtail his thievery? The people who should be answering this question are the people who run the housing authority. Why are these people getting double subsidies from NY and US taxpayers? How many Americans are on the waiting list for these apartments?

FYI..the buggest, and least publicized, UN financial scandal is that US citizens who are employees of the UN receive complete 100% reimbursement by the UN for all of the federal income taxes they pay each year.

When asked at a press conference last year about a Mercedes that his son shipped into Ghana in 1998 under false use of the secretary-general's name and the U.N. seal, Mr. Annan ducked the question by accusing the reporter of being a bad journalist.

Why should any non-US citizen be allowed to have US taxpayer subsidized housing? This is a real scandal.
