Why is the UN so stubborn on economics and poverty?

Question

The US has basically a market-oriented economy. And our economy performs better and the citizens' financial condition and incomes improve the closer our economy approaches a free market. Average in the US is on par with rich in many countries and poor in the US is better than middle class in most other countries. We are wealthy relative to the rest of the world and we are constantly increasing our wealth because of the economic freedoms that our citizens enjoy. We consume a lot because we produce a lot - it comes at no one else's expense.

Many other countries have centralized economies. The countries that do are poorer than ours, generally much so, and the reason isn't our citizens' economic freedom but their citizens' lack of it.

The UN constantly chastises us for being "greedy" and says our economic model is bad, yet it demands that we support the countries who do it the other way, and it's always the same countries with their hands out.

Why are they so stubborn?

Answer 1

Because with very few exceptions countries in the UN are semi socialist overregulated and overtaxed. The rest are outright Dictatorships where the Govt. does not give a rats rear end about the well being of their people. So the US is a thorn in their eyes. Except when there is some catastrophy, then it`s good old Uncle Sam to the resque and everyone is very grateful for about 3 days. As to the UN, that whole bunch should be sunk in the East River.

Answer 2

Because america runs it.

Answer 3

the un is a joke
