Take
a guess at how much the US contributes to the United Nations every
year. Seventy million dollars? Seven hundred million dollars? You might
be surprised and sickened to learn that the total is more than $7 billion!
That
is $7 billion from a country that has to borrow roughly 40 percent of
every dollar it spends. The list that money gets spent on is filled with
unconstitutional items. Plus, most of the money is given above and
beyond the dues the US is assessed to belong to the UN, such as for UN "peascekeeping."
According
to the Constitution, which branch of the government holds the purse
strings? Article I, Section 7 points to the House of Representatives
(Legislative branch) as being the body where bills for raising revenue
must originate. Wait. Which political party is in charge of the House
that allows this spending to continue unabated? That's right, the
Republicans. This is just another example of pointing out that the
problem isn't left vs. right. It's liberty vs. tyranny. Which camp do
you think Republican leadership is currently in?
But
we digress, the United Nations negatively affects America in a myriad
of ways, and more and more Americans are coming to see this. To better
demonstrate the effects, JBS has recently published two new pamphlets: "The UN Arms Trade Treaty vs. The 2nd Amendment" and "The United Nations and You."
Both
are currently available. Affordable bulk pricing is available for
activists to distribute at events, gatherings, meetings or during
one-on-one educational opportunities.This is part of our "Get US Out! of the United Nations" action project.
With your help, we can be successful in getting the US out of the UN
and the UN out of the US. With UN influence affecting so much of our
daily lives, it's time to get out. Also, be sure to visit the action
page and contact Congress to support already introduced legislation to get us out.
