NO VALUE IN THE UN

It’s time to disband the United Nations. It is a useless and very expensive organization with absolutely no bite. Basically, it’s just a bunch of people in very cushy positions, paid very high salaries, who meet in a very expensive building in New York, and who talk a lot but do absolutely nothing. Like the old League of Nations, it’s just a waste of time and the money member countries pay to keep it going is an excellent example of wasteful government spending. Those contributions could be spent much more effectively, improving the health services for the citizens of those countries. Simply stated, if the UN cannot stop one of its member countries from waging an unprovoked attack on a smaller nation, why bother pretending that it can. Its noble constitution isn’t worth the paper it’s written on.
