These are valid questions.
Added to this list should be: why is the US responsible for 25% of the UN budget? Wouldn't we get less US influence in the UN if they were required to pay based on a per capita number?
There has been talk of moving the UN from New York in these discussion forums, and I think this is a great idea. But where?
I suggest it should NOT be in Europe or North America.
I think we should put it in a city that would benefit from the economic stimulus that such a headquarters brings to a city.
Some examples of the cities where the UN should be based: Kandahar, Damascus, Gaza City, Harare, Quito, Pyongyang, etc.
It would be no benefit to the world if the new UN headquarters wound up in Toronto, Tokyo, Milan or Miami.
