And we pay most of the UN bills? 22% and at one time we were one billion in arrears. Other major contributors are Japan (19.63%), Germany (9.82%), France (6.50%), the United Kingdom (5.57%), Italy (5.09%), Canada (2.57%) and Spain (2.53%). Special UN programs not included in the regular budget (such as UNICEF, UNDP, UNHCR, and WFP) are financed by voluntary contributions from member governments. In 2001, it is estimated that such contributions from the US will total approximately $1.5 billion. Much of this is in the form of agricultural commodities donated for afflicted populations, but the majority is financial contributions. From: http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php...United_Nations |

What's that equal to, the amount of money we waste each minute on our military and private contractors and their continuing misadventure turning Iraq into a democracy?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Uh, no, but you keep saying it and it will be true enough for TV news;) |

It is about a week's spending in Iraq, or less, depending what cost estimate you use. |
