U.N.'s World Health Organization Eyeing Global Tax on Banking, Internet Activity

The World Health Organization (WHO) is considering a plan to ask governments to impose a global consumer tax on such things as Internet activity or everyday financial transactions like paying bills online.

Such a scheme could raise "tens of billions of dollars" on behalf of the United Nations' public health arm from a broad base of consumers, which would then be used to transfer drug-making research, development and manufacturing capabilities, among other things, to the developing world.

The EU and/or US would have to be on board before it would become anyway possible and its hard to see either of these bodies allowing themselves to be taxed by a global institution.

And why are the WHO asking for this?

And just who runs WHO? Come on people it's all connected.

They never stop wringing the stone for extra drops of blood, do they ?

If we pay it they win --- they profit


If we refuse to pay it they win, because we cease exposing them and their foul partners in crime


I vote we boot them out, the lot of them. They're simply a gang of criminals anyway

and we should continue booting them out until finally, they get the message that they work for us, not the reverse

Executions would send the message very graphically

And I'm sure we can all think of a dozen or more whose executions could only improve the world

Is it even legal for a extra national organization such as the UN to dictate a tax on U.S. consumer transactions?

Seems fishy to me.
Isn't the government of the U.S. mandated to protect the interests of the people.
Same story over and over again. The people are being sold away.

The entire Obama administration staff are advocates to giving power, and the sovereignty of the U.S. over the U.N...and what is WHO exactly?....a U.N. branch...

The EU have also been wanting to impose such taxes, just as well as green taxes, and they will agree with this.

I just can't believe that after all we have been discussing in these same boards, and the tons of evidence supporting the fact that the Socialist elites want this, alongside a One World Socialist Government, One World Economy, and the One World Religion aka Anthropogenic Global Warming, that there are still people who think the elites in the EU, and the U.S. don't want this.... C'mon...

Pretty soon they are going to come up with a scheme to tax us for breathing, and exhaling CO2....

I made a joke in these forums some years back that soon animals and humans would be wearing some sensors to measure how much CO2 and methane we exhale/expel to tax us...

Well, now we know that they want to tax farm animals, and pets for their production of CO2.... the next move will be to tax us for the same thing...

They are going to continue with this plan to tax us for CO2, and methane, even though we have tons of evidence that shows CO2 is NOT the cause for Climate Change, and that AGW is nothing more than a SCAM...
