Some of American Reaction to US Government bailing out the United Nations



2009-09-01 13:33:57 ET

Under no circumstances should we bail out the UN for anything. In fact we need to cancel the lease on the UN Headquarters building and obligate them to request asylum in some other country. Let someone else have the pleasure for a while.

did the 3% who said yes not understand the question?

We can't even fix all the problems of our own country-and are bailing out everything under the sun with money that we don't even have-are you kidding by asking if we should bail out the U.N.? What really has the U.N. does for us lately?

Are you kidding me with this question? Not only should we not help the UN with ANYTHING, we should PULL OUT of the UN altogether!!!

The US should bail out of the UN. Then the UN should be moved to Paris.

United Nations you would think that a united front could pay to have new computer and not have to look that the "rich uncle" to bail them out. I feel that the "rich uncle" might me strapped for a while.

Absolutely NOT! I agree with Tom, we need to cancel their lease and move them out of the US!

I think the way the question is phrased is misleading. For a start the USA is never expected to bail out the UN it has never happened. The budget comes from a shared pot not just the USA. Secondly, the USA always takes money from other people, for instance the UK only finished paying their loan back from world war two and they are supposed to be strong allies. Imagine what they are like with their enemies.

Not one penny! Not for anything connected with the UN!

Very misleading question. How the hell are you "Bailing" the UN out?
Your paying a % share of the upkeep that many other countries also have to pay.
Sure you can pull out but without the UN promoting your economy your trade income would likely decrease.
Not to mention you will loose all those extradition treatments you love calling in on.

Tom

Arronax - You're joking right? The UN promoting the US economy and our trade income would likely decrease? Boggles the mind doesn't it folks?

Arronax lives in a 4th world country and has his hand out too!
Yes, we give needles to drug addicts, a credit card to the non performing US citizens, medical care to evaders of our country and we provide Nancy P with the Queens life style. Why not continue to pour our hard worked for dollars into the worthless UN.

Arronax, must be from France, the Country that has stuck it up the United States ass since the 1st WW.
I agree with those who said move the U.N. out of the United states and get out of the United Nations. They have screw us too many times. We pay the largest share to the United nations and we don't have that money anymore due to Obama spending like money grows on trees. Look like the trees are dying doesn't it?

I have been around and done much instruction for the UN around the world. They do not need any more money. They only need to reel in their salaries and greed. You will be throwing your money away by bailing the UN out; but Americans always have money to throw around - don't you?

NO MORE BAILOUTS!!!!!!!!!!! Our Gov. is broke . We will never get our debts paid now.

NO MORE BAILOUTS!!!!!!!!!!! Our Gov. is broke . We will never get our debts paid now. The UN is useless.

The US already pays a major share of the UN support in addition to having to put up with them on a day to day basis in New York. I like the suggestion of moving them to Paris, or Moscow.

An example of their trade assistance, would also be appreciated!!

US out of the UN ....... UN out of the US !!!!!

Not another single nickel (that we don't have) should be spent on World Liberalism. We've fronted these bums for far too long. Let's see if we just can't get them to move along...out of NYC...out of USA.

How about a resounding HELL NO!

I think the UN would get on much better without the USA, look at the mess they have caused over the last couple of years with their wars that will never end. The USA is broke they are useless now so it would be better to cut them loose. The answers to the questions just show how little Americans know even us French people speak and spell English better than them

I think that given our dire straits and the fact that we already contribute plenty to the rest of the world, that the UN should help to bail US OUT!!
As a matter of fact moving their headquarters out of the US (maybe to Iran or Palestine (Jerusalem , maybe?) or China -- the new economic giant!; the UN would be doing all of us in the US a favor.
And by the way as the US economy is no longer that robust, we should decrease the amount of fees (dues) we pay to the UN. Let China pick up the tab for a while, they are no longer a developing country!!

We should get out of the U.N. and get the U.N. out of our country! It is the most corrupt organization in the world. Dictators and despots are elected to this organization to rule over committees and boards that are in charge of investigating human rights abuses and nuclear proliferation! It is a travesty!

Hey Pat--
Next time the Germans kicks your butt-- We will not come and save you!!
Just have the UN come and bail you out!

David

No way in bailing out the UN. We do it enough. It's time that the US bail out OF the UN!

Will Kane

Instead of bailing out the UN we should bail out of the UN. This corrupt anti-American organization needs to be sent packing. All these years of this organization has not stopped one war and the countries they keep pouring money into are no better off today than when they started.

Kastler

Of course not--are they nuts or what?

Obama
2009-09-01 15:06:39 ET

The U.S. has an unlimited money supply and we MUST redistribute our wealth and give to the worlds poor. The only way out of this recession is to spend, spend, spend.

sinmiedo68, that is not fair the Germans did not beat us. At the time France had a bigger army (e.g Tanks, Shipsand and Guns) compared to the USA. We were no push over. It was one commander that failed and it allowed them through. The USA came at the end of both Wars so it is not fair to say that you kicked their butts that is very unfair to all the Russian and British people who sacrifice much more than USA.

We need the U.S. out of the U.N. and the U.N. off U.S. soil. The U.N. has over-extended their welcome here.

Brian
2009-09-01 15:20:35 ET

Time for the U.S. to get out of the U.N. and the U.N. to get out of the U.S. Disband it. Kick it out. Outlaw it. However it's done, get rid of them.

You mean! Should we bail out the same bunch of perverts who want to teach sex education and masterbation to kindergarten children. The same organization that sponsors global funding for abortion and the biggest con of the century "Global Warming"? I will gladly contribute to get them the hell out of my country. And take Obama and his cronies with them!
