The orange UNICEF boxes obviously weren't enough bucks to fund their luxaries,ideals and tyrannical ICC.

Unicef/The U.N. overall are multi million/trillion dollar operations and they do not cure world hunger (not even curb it) (I doubt the $$$$$$$$$ goes where they say it does) nor bring world wide peace, so now they want a global lottery?
Their tyrannical ideals are showing more and more-daily!

They will find a way to be self supporting, and there are many people more than happy to buy a ticket offering them a ride to hades.

Why doesn't the UN begin a drive to start their own version of 'Girl Scout Cookies'?

Mmmmm...'UN Cookies'. Maybe they can have Purina and Alpo bid on the contract...

I'm all for it if it means less money from the US Govt directly to the UN.

I wouldn't count on that. They'll still be hitting us up for every dime we're stupid enough to fork over.

And of course, all the tens of billions the U.S. gives to the U.N. on behalf of it's "peacekeeping" (i.e.: war-making/nation-bulding) missions will continue to not be considered part of the total.

It will go straight to Swiss accounts to pay for private jets, stretch mercedes, and bodyguards.
