Now, who are the suckers here?

Following is a table denoting contributions made by the major countries participating in the United Nations. Note that China is conspicuously absent from the list. Also note the contributions made by the Russian and the French. The US and Japan account for almost 50% of the UN funding. Now, who are the suckers here and why should we let the leeches control the agenda?
