I give a 1 finger salute to this idea. If memory serves, they tried this proposal back in 03 on a global scale. You already have DC sending out money everywhere just to have a say in what these countries are doing.

UN calls for international tax to raise $400 billion to finance development needs
This would be $400 billion raised by all the different members of the UN to cover the costs imposed by our multinational corporations and the seriously damaging effects of climate change brought upon by the largest nations' insistence on fossil fuels.
I sometimes wish the UN was as bad as you all make them out to be.
