In second term, Obama will allow UN to tax Americans

In our new book, "Here Come the Black Helicopters: UN Global Governance and the Loss of Freedom," Eileen and I (Dick Morris) describe how there is now pending in the U.N. all kinds of plans to tax Americans and redistribute their wealth – not to other Americans – but to other countries. These taxes will not be like our U.N. dues paid by a vote of our Congress. Nor akin to foreign aid which we choose to give. They would be mandatory levies imposed by treaty on American citizens. And, since they would be enumerated in a Treaty – not an act of Congress -- only the president and the Democratic Senate need be on board. The Republican House has no role in the Treaty-making process.

Of course this would not surprise me at all. Only the President and Senate involved in the treaty process - how convenient.

Examples of possible taxes...

  • A “Robin Hood” tax on financial transactions.
  • A global tobacco tax with the funds to flow to the World Health Organization (WHO).
  • A UN-imposed tax on billionaires all over the world.
  • Under the Law of the Sea Treaty – up for Senate ratification in December of the lame duck session – offshore oil and gas wells would have to pay a proportion of their revenues to the International Seabed Authority, a UN-sponsored organization, which would distribute the loot to the third world.
  • A carbon tax on all U.S. or other foreign commercial or passenger aircraft flying to Europe.
  • A mandatory assessment to be imposed on the U.S. to compensate third world nations for the costs of reducing their carbon output.

I remember the Bush admin was a strong supporter of the LOST treaty and other UN BS. No doubt Romney would follow his footsteps like he wants to regarding every other issue and policy, including the re-destruction of the economy.

You sure need TINFOIL for this thread. As Yamamoto said"You cannot invade America. There is a rifle behind every blade of grass" This is just fear mongering etc.

Hillary, in her UN speech, backed a global tax.

You are either naive or are OK with then taxing us.

I think most people know anybody can be invaded.

I think you are being naive thinking Romney would oppose UN treaties.

You should be more worried about TPP instead of UN initiatives.
14 meetings on TPP have been held since 2010.
This is the next "NAFTA".

Okay, explain how the United States would be invaded militarily. Must be easy if "most people know" right?

I don't Romney as President yet in December do you?

Under the Law of the Sea Treaty – up for Senate ratification in December of the lame duck session – offshore oil and gas wells would have to pay a proportion of their revenues to the International Seabed Authority, a UN-sponsored organization, which would distribute the loot to the third world.
