As I mentioned before, in 1978 a UN resolution was proposed, calling for developed countries to increase the quantity and quality of development assistance to underdeveloped countries. The vote passed 119 to 1. But the US vetoed it, and the resolution was thrown out. Why would they do such a thing? If the US truly acts out of compassion, why would they reject a proposal to improve the standard of living in third-world countries? Because it's easier to exploit them if you keep them in poverty.
As For the Den Of Thieves refered to as the UN here is the statastics of the votes against the US and that Us Dollars they receive

Perhaps it is time to get out of the UN and give the tax savings back to the American workers who are having to skimp and sacrifice to pay the taxes
yup time to let the other countries take care of them selves in My opinion
