I know I've been beating this horse on several threads, but I hope it's not dead yet. Does the bolded amount look familiar? Especially if an Obama Preidency seems to be expected by the leftist crowd.

Excerpt from "Obama’s Global Tax Proposal Up for Senate Vote" February 2008:

Jeffrey Sachs, who runs the U.N.'s "Millennium Project," says that the U.N. plan to force the U.S. to pay 0.7 percent of GNP in increased foreign aid spending would add $65 billion a year to what the U.S. already spends. Over a 13-year period, from 2002, when the U.N.'s Financing for Development conference was held, to the target year of 2015, when the U.S. is expected to meet the "Millennium Development Goals," this amounts to $845 billion. And the only way to raise that kind of money, Sachs has written, is through a global tax, preferably on carbon-emitting fossil fuels
