I give a 1 finger salute to this idea. If memory serves, they tried this proposal back in 03 on a global scale. You already have DC sending out money everywhere just to have a say in what these countries are doing.
""In a resolution, the Republican National Committee made clear its objection to “three global taxes and a global monetary governance mechanism to raise $400 billion a year to aid developing countries.""

Sure...why not...Welfare for the World now.....


I stand for a tax revolution. It's bad enough what our tax dollars go to here on U.S. soil that we have no say over.

I'll be damned if I send any of my tax money to the U.N.....

Good grief folks, we already pay the UN a tax!!

The US Govt apparatus is the biggest $$ source of the UN already.
And who pays those bills?

This is a double-think backwards logic manipulation tactic.....

"Oh I don't want a UN Tax", this is subliminal to make us foolishly believe we Don't Already have one!!

Let's end the obscene UN taxes we are already paying, please.
That's the real story here.

Good luck with that UN. No matter your political persuasion, there's no way that one would fly. As it is, the UN gets taxpayer money via the dues the U.S. pays.

And don't forget all the back channel funding the UN gets through other countries diplomatic missions not paying for anything and making the US government pick up the tab.

The UN is a good example of everything that's wrong with the world right now.

GEL...greed knows no bounds. This is nothing but pure unadulterated greed. Rape of the already over taxed, American tax payers, with the blessing of segments of our Government. There are so many private fingers in the U.N. pie as it is.

This is so stupid...it's almost funny...in a sick kinda way...

I think I have a worthy compromise, we, the US pulls out of the un and kicks the organization off of our soil and they can provide their own troops!
I see a win/win here.

UN calls for international tax to raise $400 billion to finance development needs

This would be $400 billion raised by all the different members of the UN to cover the costs imposed by our multinational corporations and the seriously damaging effects of climate change brought upon by the largest nations' insistence on fossil fuels.

I sometimes wish the UN was as bad as you all make them out to be.

I sometimes wish the UN could actually come up with a good idea every once in a while.

Humans do not effect climate. So this tax is 100% bogus.

It's about time the Republicans stood up for something righteous!


Maybe if we quit funding the UN, I might not mind sending some tax dollars to people that really need it.

Why don't they get money from the a-rabs that are building up Abu Dahbi at our expense. Just so the rich have a place to go snow ski and play gulf in the middle of the desert.

We need to keep our money here in the US. No wonder we're broke.

I have no stock in those multi-nationals, amd I've paid for my nation's wealth build already with the wealth drain on myself and 4 previous generations of my family's taxes. I have no need to pay a UN tax. If what they do is so worthwile to those corporations, they can take some of their savings from employing people in 3rd world countries and basing their HQs in tax havens and donate it to the damn UN.

Should the US allow itself to be taxed by the UN, it will be reason enough for millions, possibly tens of millions of Americans, alongside the U.S. Military, to finally put an end to 100 years of madness.

Exactly! I finally woke up. My heart would bleed when I saw the pics of all the little emaciated children with flies buzzing around their little faces, or children standing in the doorway of a hovel without running water or even a bed to sleep on. Then I realized that I have been seeing these same scenarios for DECADES displayed on TV and in print. Billions and billions of dollars from the US and other countries have been pouring into these places forever! Who is getting that money? Why do these places still need basic infrastructure?

The UN is a corrupt bunch of henchmen stealing in the name of charity. They do just enough to keep people from smelling the stinking fish! They want to disarm civilized societies so they can rape us monetarily with "social" fees "carbon taxes" and god know what else. I will not vote for anybody that openly supports the UN's agenda over our own. (Can you say Leon Panetta and the rest of this globalist-first administration??)

And don't forget the UN's upcoming conference on INTERNET controls in the name of cyber security. Don't let them touch this!!!!!!!!!!

You are right about a lot of the injustices and it will always go on as usual if nothing is done. A good example is Africa and is large resources for it's economy. But I for one always take a stand that it is not always America's fault nor is it just Americas responsibility to fix it alone - what a joke. Why is it always America's fault? Why are we always to blame? Are we the only ones that have screwed up the world?

I personally think Obama put the idea in the UN's suggestion box.
