cosidering the amount of money being traded by fund managers, that get a cut off the top of 401s and such, they would still make the trades...the retirees accounts will take the hit behind closed doors...

Just lovely. Another 115 Billion PER YEAR flushed down the rabbit hole.

Also known as another 345 dollars per year for every man, woman, and child in the country.

I don’t know.....the overuse of the word in two sentences didn’t make it all that clear.

It's written to prevent you from knowing.

[concerned about politics]

Obomanomics has put 1 in 7 Americans in poverty, and he's talking about world welfare?
I think Oboma isn't quite right in the head. I think he's clinical.

OK....if anyone had doubts about Agenda 21 being real or not; or that we were actually doing it, need only look at the "outcome document". It is all about Agenda 21. THEY SAY IT.

*PAGE 24*

"Millennium Development Goal 7

Ensure environmental sustainability (HELLO...)

77. We commit ourselves to accelerating progress in order to achieve Millennium Development Goal 7,including through:

(a) Pursuing sustainable development,in accordance with the principles contained in the Rio Declaration on Environment and Development, including the Report of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, Rio de Janeiro, principle of common but differentiated responsibilities,and taking into account the respective capabilities of countries,with a view to effectively implementing the outcomes of the major summits on sustainable development and addressing new and emerging challenges"

FFS...this can't be any clearer. We get to pay for our own cages.

Poppycock. Obastard can sign all the international agreements he wants but without 2/3 of the Senate to ratify it, it means nothing.

[Blood of Tyrants]

What makes no sense at all is how the American people elected this man.

When you consider that the media did everything in its considerable power to conceal who he was and the stupidity of the liberal elite (and Democrats in general), it makes perfect sense.

[wintertime]

We already pay “global” taxes. Every U.S. government dime that goes to the U.N. comes directly from the taxes paid by Americans.

Personally, if I could be a fairy godmother for an hour, one of the first things to go poof would be all American involvement in the U.N. and that real estate there in NYC would be immediately sold and the proceeds used to pay down the debt.

[PATRIOT1876]

IDIOTS!

I think if almost any Republican ran on only the issues of Repeal Obamacare and Get rid of the UN....they'd win just on that.

[Carry_Okie]

Poppycock. Obastard can sign all the international agreements he wants but without 2/3 of the Senate to ratify it, it means nothing.

Allow me to bring you up to high school level civics:

US Constitution, Article II, Section 2, Clause2:

He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur;

It's 2/3 of Senators PRESENT, not two thirds of the Senate. There have been treaties ratified in this country without a committee vote, without a quorum, and without a recorded vote. As for treaties becoming effectively enforceable upon signature, read the link about the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties. You're clueless.

[hsalaw]

Obama has been a major U.N. supporter since he was in the Senate

He's on the wrong side of every issue.

[SeattleBruce]

Wow, obummer keeps doing boneheaded things going into the mid-terms...it’s almost like he’s got dual citizenship or somethin’ and just doesn’t care about the good ol’ USA...;)

[Aroostook25]

Make the rest of the world’s population pay the same per capita to the UN as America does.

Americans are 4.6% of the world population.
America is assessed 22% of the regular UN budget and 27% of the UN “peacekeeping budget” — figure 25% overall.
The rest of the world needs to pay at least five times what they are paying now.

[A Navy Vet]

Won't happen in my lifetime (maybe 20 years left). This would be the final straw for Revolution II. They can couch it in what ever terms they like, but won't succeed. Yes, I know we all ready pay taxes via our international funding of various "ally" support and relief (waste) programs, but that is through our own Fedgov. A direct UN tax? Har! Bring it! See if I pay one plug nickel. I don't care what treaties are signed and ratified.

Think offshore accounts and dummy corporations in Switzerland, Luxembourg, Lichtenstein, Cayman Islands, Isle of Man, Belize, et al. That might even be an investment opportunity if enough people pooled their assets.

A theft that we allow as we look the other way. Abolish the IRS. Make them extinct.

[mojitojoe]

Sooner or later, there will be a full blown tax revolt.

[paulycy]

To do list:

Eliminate the IRS
Eliminate the EPA.
Eliminate the Dept of Ed

Make new list...
