Ya know what this means? Our tax dollars will go to help some of those countries--a lot of help. A "UN Tax," if you will.
Brown woos Obama on global deal
From The Sunday Times

GORDON BROWN hopes to forge a partnership with President Barack Obama in Washington this week, to call for a “global new deal†to lift the world out of recession.
As he prepares for his first White House visit since the president’s inauguration, the prime minister has hinted that he is ready to make further tax cuts to boost the UK economy.
Brown will meet Obama on Tuesday and address a joint session of Congress on Wednesday. Aides say he has both to demonstrate to a sceptical British public that he commands the respect of the president, and to persuade the American political establishment that global action is needed to rescue the US economy.
Brown is under pressure to persuade American political leaders to sign up to bold aims for the G20 summit of industrial and leading developing nations, which is to be held in London next month.
Many US politicians believe economic policy should put America first, and have shown little interest in concerted global action. Brown will argue for a renewal of the transatlantic relationship, with the two powers working together to solve global economic problems.
Yes, America first. The rest of the world will recover when America does. As we go, so goes the rest of the world, whether you like it or not.

It might have mutated into this.
