Everyone pays whatever they want and then votes in direct proportion to how
much they paid in order to decide what to do.
So to implement the onion-vision all the US has to do is pay 51% (and that
will work as long as the whole rest of the world doesn't stump up more money
to outvote them)
Set a minimum budget for the UN and if the UN budget drops below that, it
goes out of business.
OR everyone pays some amount as a minimum (per capita seems fair) and can't
go below that
or something... I'm brainstorming here, not advocating.
The way it's set now is broken though.
