#3 We pay about half the total bill for the UN every year, and I can't see where we are getting a goddamned thing for it. Unless you count supplying a platform for our enemies to congregate and lace into the free buffet.

#4 The US used to pay 50% of UN dues. Then it was cut to 25% of general dues and 1/3 of the peacekeeping bill. Now the US pays 22% (I think) of general UN dues, peacekeeping is higher. Add to that the US contribution of 33 to over 60%, depending on location, of the UN humanitarian bill.

Not much to show for it, esp compared to the 1% and 2% paid by Russia and China (higher for peacekeeping as members of the UN Security Council). I think limiting US (and Japan's) payments to the % of world population is just what that august body needs.

#5 Give the parade of clowns 30 days notice to vacate. We're condemning the proerty and it's being demolished even if they stay camped out in it. Let the assholes decamp to Brussels where they can be truly appreciated.
