Kstar, the fact that we "owe" the UN money doesn't mean we're not giving it any. The US donates manpower, equipment, weapons, ships...while most other countries get reimbursed. We're also the largest donor to UN agencies like UNICEF.

Say you started a group which benefits you little, but others a lot. You allow the group to meet at your house. Members in the group even start doing things that are bad for you. They disrespect your house, and get away with it. All while you pay a quarter of the bills for the group, while other wealthy people, who benefit from the group 1000 times more than you, pay a much smaller fraction of the costs...= the UN
