Think people will finally start to realize the UN is a shell game?

Millions of people will die if UN aid stops. They help at least 100 million people each year with life-saving food and medicines so if only 1% of those die instead (could be much higher, obviously) that's 1 million people.

Famously the UN is a charity organization and that's it's only intended function. No need to criticize or consider any other implications of the UN.

I would only keep the human aids part of the UN and abolish everything else
