UN Taxation

France is now charging travelers a new tax on their airline tickets, amounting to a surcharge of between $1.25 and $50. The French government claims the new tax is earmarked to help the world's poor. The airline surcharge, which is based on the traveler's ticket price, came into effect this weekend. The hope is that eventually all wealthy nations will participate in this international tax plan. The new tax, pushed through the French parliament by President Jacques Chirac and backed by United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan, is being hailed and criticized by many throughout the globe. It's being hyped by the Globalists as the "Solidarity Tax." ... It would also help the UN avoid being the target of investigations by member countries when they discover suspicious or corrupt behavior such as the Iraq oil-for-food scandal. The National Ledger

One World Government. Who will rule the world? Absolute power corrupts absolutely. All must be in check. Leaders must fear those they govern. I would rather the UN be subservient to the nations subject to it's rules.
