Yeah and I'm sure like 22% of those funds came from the US, if not for us would they be able to maintain all of the above?The quality of those organizations would hardly be effected by the 22% that we contribute to the General Fund. The organizations I mentioned are funded seperately and the US contributes an even bigger amount to the ones that have historically been a better force multiplier then direct US foreign aid. UNICEF and WHO are headed by Americans. The UN Develepoment Programme and the World Bank are also traditionally headed by Americans appointed by the US President and also funded seperately. The 22% is mainly for the run-of-the-mill UN bureaucracy in NY and Geneva and a few other places which is very wasteful and corrupt. |
