Hey Neighbor -
Please explain how continuing United States membership in the UN will benefit the citizens of our country.
Will we be safer?
Richer?
Better looking?
More popular?
Tigers win the NCAA basketball tournament?
Not likely...

As was talked about in the article, the U.N. is not completely useless. I am in agreement with the idea that the U.N. IS completely uselss in dealing with conflicts. However, there still remains all the human oriented missions the U.N. takes on. It would still be in the U.S.'s best interest to have a voice in how funds are spent in this world.
I don't think this will benefit the American people directly. But to disregard the good things the U.S. can accomplish in the U.N. is shortsighted.
We need not worry about the security council anymore though. I agree mostly with the article. Like I said before, disband it. It only serves to limit our sovereignty.

Oh btw... do you think Kofi can ball? I'm sure coach Q would funnel some "perks" his way if he got game.
