Latest United Nations Scheme to Tax America

It's the Global Poverty Act (S.2433), and according to some sources, this sickening bill could potentially force the United States to spend as much as $845,000,000,000.00 on welfare to third-world countries.

Among them, Phyllis Schlafly who recently wrote:

"Obama's costly, dangerous and altogether bad bill (S. 2433), which could come up in the Senate any day, is called the Global Poverty Act. It would commit U.S. taxpayers to spend 0.7 percent of our Gross Domestic Product on foreign handouts..." [Emphasis Mine]

And WorldNetDaily.com quotes Cliff Kincaid at Accuracy in Media as saying:

"[T]he legislation, if approved, dedicates 0.7 percent of the U.S. gross national product to foreign aid, which over 13 years... would amount to $845 billion 'over and above what the U.S. already spends.'"

"The plan passed the House in 2007 'because most members didn't realize what was in it.' Congressional sponsors have been careful not to calculate the amount of foreign aid spending that it would require." $845 BILLION is hardly a drop in the bucket and, yes, that's in addition to our Foreign Aid programs, which, in 2006, cost American taxpayers almost $300 BILLION!

But make no mistake -- for those of us who are compassionate -- you can be sure that most of that money will do little to alleviate poverty or help the needy.

If we allow history to be our guide, we can be certain that the most of the money will be gobbled up by third-world tyrants and bureaucrats, who live in heavily guarded palaces and drive gold-plated Rolls-Royces while their people starve by the millions or die of preventable diseases.

If the Democrat-controlled Congress passes this bill, the United States will have taken the first step toward the complete surrender of our national sovereignty.

And by the way, THE HOUSE HAS ALREADY PASSED THIS BILL! We MUST stop it in the Senate!

Let them know in no uncertain terms that you are watching and you will not tolerate massive United Nations style giveaways that are passed in the dark of night -- or in broad daylight for that matter. Tell them that putting us on the road to give billions to petty tyrants and dictators is NOT a solution to poverty.

This bill can come up for a vote at any time. Demand that our conservative legislators do whatever it takes -- a filibuster if necessary -- to stop this bill dead in its tracks.
