[QUOTE="av8torntn, post: 335469, member: 8259"] Looks like the CBO is estimating the cost of this bill to be one million a year just to provide the Government agency to implement. This is what gopusa says about this bill. "The bill defines the term "Millennium Development Goals" as the goals set out in the [URL="http://www.un.org/millennium/declaration/ares552e.pdf"][U][COLOR=#0000ff]United Nations Millennium Declaration[/COLOR][/U][/URL], General Assembly Resolution 55/2 (2000). In addition to seeking to eradicate poverty, that declaration commits nations to banning "small arms and light weapons" and ratifying a series of treaties, including the International Criminal Court Treaty, the Kyoto Protocol (global warming treaty), the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, and the Convention on the Rights of the Child." That sounds a little far fetched to me but who knows with this guy. B. Hussein Obama is saying this. “In 2000, the U.S. joined more than 180 countries at the United Nations Millennium Summit and vowed to reduce global poverty by 2015. We are halfway towards this deadline, and it is time the United States makes it a priority of our foreign policy to meet this goal and help those who are struggling day to day." I guess as long as they are not Iraqis that we are helping he is OK with it. From his website. [B]Fight Global Poverty:[/B] Obama will embrace the Millennium Development Goal of cutting extreme poverty around the world in half by 2015, and he will double our foreign assistance to $50 billion to achieve that goal. He will help the world's weakest states to build healthy and educated communities, reduce poverty, develop markets, and generate wealth. [/QUOTE]
