The United Nations
One thing that is always in the background of our daily lives is the United Nations. We hear about it all the time and the good work it does. The thing we never hear about is that there are many countries that haven’t paid their dues. It turns out that only about 11% of the countries in the U.N. are paid up.
The worst news is that the United States is one of the countries that still owes money to them. I know that we pay more than nearly every country, but we still should pay the money we owe. I hope that our government will stand up for what is right and make good on the promises we made. The world needs the benefits of this great institution.
