Same thing. Take away the U.S. contribution's an the UN folds up the tent.

Figure of speech.

And it has failed.

To call the UN "somewhat flawed" is just a little understated.
It is a total disaster.

Yeah those third world dictators and despots, along with the socialist,and
communist are all as pure as the new snow. No problem with them! Yep It's
got to be those nasty old capitalist in the larger western nations.

Where has it worked?
Where has the UN done anything successful without the US doing most of the work?

Yes it would. WE The US could kick ass. Do you have a problem with 300 400
