Problem is the United Nations is funded by the United States, always has been. No United States, no United Nations. Simple as that. Put up or shut up. Anyone can go to the ER and get health care in the United States. They cannot be turned down. It’s always been that way. That doesn’t mean you should expect them to provide a sex change operation. Covid has disrupted hospitals ability significantly but it’s starting to get better now. Another problem is a lot of people are just to lazy to work when they can sit on their tails and get free handouts why not? If you don’t work you don’t eat. Not if you don’t work the government should feed you, provide you with housing and health care and social services. The problem is morals. The United States no longer has any and it should start with the leaders. “Government”
