It absolutely violates the constitution because it would allow for a global tax imposed on US citizens run by the United Nations (and the guy at the UN said he would like it to be a carbon tax...cough cough global warming crowd). This violates the Article I powers of the legislative branch. Congress has the power to lay and collect taxes for the common defense and general welfare of the United States. This means that not only can they not legislate this against us because it does not provide for the United States, it puts the control of this money into the hands of the UN. It completely violates the constitution and our sovereignty. The constitution does not allow the handing over of our authority to global bodies. This bill, the treaty of the sea bill, all of them go against everything my country was founded on. If anything, this proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that Senator Obama has no business serving as POTUS. The founding fathers are spinning in their graves right now.
