[align=left]United Nations bureaucrats, meeting in New York, are trying to shove through Bilderberg??s demand for a direct tax on world citizens but, so far, the United States is firmly opposed. UN bureaucrats used euphemisms to hide their tax plan in the 40-page ??Draft Outcome Document of the High-Level Plenary Meeting of the General Assembly of September 2005.? [/align]

[align=left]The document, if finally agreed upon, is to be taken up by 170 heads of state at the UN. It calls for ??innovative and additional sources of financing for development on a public, private, domestic or external basis? and ??solidarity contributions on plane tickets to finance development projects? and ??other solidarity contributions that would be nationally applied and internationally coordinated.? [/align]

[align=left]For years, Bilderberg has pressed for a direct UN tax on the world, and for at least three years such proposals have been pending before the world body. Bilderberg??s favorite form of UN taxes has been a levy of 10 cents a gallon on oil. This would, initially, be so small the consumer would not notice the fraction of a penny on gasoline, even with today??s sky-high prices. But the principle would be established and, like the U.S. income tax, it would be tuned up in the years ahead.[/align]

[align=left]The oil tax would be imposed under the language of ??other solidarity contributions.?[/align]

[align=left]There is a growing awareness of this threat to U.S. sovereignty. Majority Whip Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) secured unanimous agreement in the House to oppose any UN taxes. The Senate should enact the same prohibition. At the UN, U.S. Ambassador John Bolton has taken this document apart, demanding 40 changes, including purging language supporting taxing authority for the UN. ??The U.S. does not accept . . . global taxes,? Bolton wrote.[/align]
