WHO, World Health Organization was created by the UN. WHO is authorizing the UN to impose taxes? Talk about taxation without representation. No one elected these people to anything yet they are trying to impose taxes? . I'm a former smoker and hate cigarette smoke but at the same time these people have a right to smoke if they want. Seems strange that the UN is saying nothing about legalizing marijuana in the US or taxing same. As I remember from my wild and crazy days sucking in a big hit and holding it was harmful to my lungs, even worse than cigarette smoke. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/oct/14/uns-world-health-organization-urges-global-tobacco/
This is what we voted for, Hope and Change. Only now it is, "I hope we live thru this so we can change".
I don't think anyone votes for the UN. And don't forget that it is not the president who makes laws. That is the on the House and Senate. The president is responsible for making sure those laws get enforced. Republicans are just as responsible as Democrats for the state of the country today. They claim to be a different party but they both answer to the same people. It's only an illusion of choice. The government has never been efficient at anything.
Wrye, Milton Friedman (renouned ecomomist) once commented "If you put the govt in charge of the Sahara Desert, in five yoears there would be a shortage of sand". True then, true now!
