A French diplomat competing to be the world’s top health official says a tiny international tax can help fill the World Health Organization’s coffers, a proposal aimed at bringing order to the U.N. agency’s fragmented budget.

Innovative financing?? Is that the latest description of a tax which you would rather not call a tax???

Let’s ask John Roberts if he thinks it is a tax.......

of course, take more money from the citizen schmucks to support an elitist controlled criminal org like the WHO. The 62 wealthiest families on this earth hold 50+ % of the entire world’s wealth, hey UN, get the money from them for the WHO.
