They want to govern our internet and take away some of our liberties- yet when they need money they turn right to the US and start to beg.

The US essentially owns the UN, doesn't it?
Not literally, as in having the UN under its title of course, but with money and the politics involved, isn't the US supposed to be the one actually running the show? |

^Not true, the USA could have wanted that.
Who ever funds something really owns it,

The USA didn't want that.
They clearly voted no, because I could count the negative votes on my fingers. |

| As far as I know, no one country is benifiting from the U.N unless it's a war torn country. Because the U.N is made up of a bunch of country's. Also, I believe they wan't to censor the Internet to stop WW3 from happening because some one posted extremely inflamitory material(like innocence of muslims or something like that) I don't know about the constitutional amendment thing, but I don't think they would because all of our amendments protect some basic human right. Exept for guns. Those need much stricter regulations. Much stricter. |

You can't just ban the internet.
Countries have their independant domains. |

| The UN is a harmful entity to international sovereignty. Theoretically, any vote in the GA could pass with 18% of the global population's sponsorship. |

So the electoral college is crap too right?
Also I agree, it should be proportional representation for democratic countries, and based on the average proportional, non democratic countries get a fixed vote.

>working for a 1 world government
Why is this such an evil thing to so many?
Where would we be if the fairly did not want the tribe to be their government, or the tribe the city, the city the state and the state the nation?
In the Stone ages, that's for sure.
Unless you want the bathe the world in nuclear hellfire, it's an inevitability, and the sooner we do it the better and less painful in the long run.

Any centralization power comes with the cost of freedom. How can one world government effectively rule of all of us and meet our needs effectively? Confederations ftw.
The electoral college isn't necessarily BS, the first past the post method is BS, and the electoral college system needs to be fixed a bit, but at least it allocates votes based on population. |

| If I may point something out, the U.N isn't a world goverment, it's a global peacekeeping force and medium for basic law and negotiation. And countries don't have to listen the the U.N. |
