    When I read reports like this, I always leave the page with one question in my mind.
    “What exactly do you propose for the UN?” Of course, we all know that they simply want the UN to have absolute power. There is no doubt in my mind, when they make the statements about the “West” and outdated UNSC formation, they mean they want to strip the US of any power and give it to opposing countries. Namely, communist countries. Turning the beast red.
    Funny thing about all of their rants against the US is, they never complain about our money funding something like 20% of the UN’s budget. Here is a simple saying, he who contributes the most has the most to lose, therefore should have the most to say. Sadly, the political world seems to have let, or at least wants to let, the takers have control of the givers. Taking from the rich and giving to the poor only makes more poor people. Likewise, making successful countries give their gains to unsuccessful countries is not going to make them both a success, but rather failures. I wonder if they treat their own personal bank accounts this way…
    I guess these people will never learn that socialism is a failure from the word go. Speaking about finances, I always get a kick out of Red(communism) vs Black(capitalism). Being in the red is bad and means you are in the negative. While being in the black is good and means you are in the positive. I believe my mother taught me that when I was around 10 or 11 years old. Seems the more left the US leans, the worse our economy does. Gee, I wonder why that is.
