Wikipedia has a great article on the United Nations, and section 4 of the article specifically discusses how the UN is funded.  The US is assessed 22% of the budget of the UN.  The US is currently more than $1.3 BILLION in arrears to the United Nations.  This is largely because Congress doesn't want to send the United Nations money unless the United Nations takes certain specific actions in the best interests of the United States.\n\nThis isn't to say the US is any worse than anyone else.  The US is only one of many countries that do this.\n\nHope this answers your questions!  The comparison to the "rest of the world" can be found in the first link below.

Most rich countries DO help poor countries. One major problem are the goverments of the poor countries are so corrupt that the food and medicine we send end up being SOLD instead of given as it's supposed to be. Often it is sold on the Black Market with full knowledge or cooperation from corrupt government officials.\n\nDo we stop trying under those conditions or do we keep doing what we can to help? It's not an easy answer. If the US and other rich countries stopped giving, many small countries would colapse into anarchy.

China. India is the world's biggest democracy. Population wise. So the US has been working with the Indian Government. But China is still under Communist rule and still hates Capitalists.

Currently the US is borrowing from China and Japan.  Saudi Arabia has a fair share as well.  But I think most of the debt is privately held in bonds.\n\nIf you want to dig up a complete list, you might try to look at the federal reserve's website.\n\nhttp://www.federalreserve.gov/\n\nI cant guarantee you will find anything, but there is a very large amount of information there that most people choose to ignore.

Starcrossing40, Iraq and Iran and Syria are all part of the African continent. Check your map. However, Saddam is no longer in power, so he isn't currently a dictator.\n\nParade ranked the Sudan’s Omar al-Bashir as the world’s worst dictator. During his reign OECD countries gave his regime more than $6 billion in non-military aid. The U.S. accounted for more than $1 billion of that aid. Kim Jong-Il was ranked as the second worst dictator and received a little over $1 billion in aid, with more than half of it coming from the U.S. Than Shwe of Myanmar, Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe, and Islam Karimov of Uzbekistan round out the top five dictators on the list. The U.S. contributed $32 million to Myanmar, $1.1 billion to Zimbabwe, and $385 million to Uzbekistan.\n\nOverall, OECD countries contributed aid to every one of Parade’s 20 worst dictators. Combined, these leaders received nearly $55 billion in aid. The U.S. contributed to 19 of the 20 worst dictators; King Abdulla of Saudi Arabia was somehow left off of the U.S. gravy train. In total, the U.S. contributed more than $7 billion in aid to these leaders. In North Korea, Belarus, Ethiopia, Swaziland, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan the U.S. contributed more than 20 percent of the total aid these countries received from OECD countries.\n\nGovernment-sponsored aid has failed to promote economic growth in the third world. From 1970 to 2000, more than $400 billion poured into poor African countries with no development to show for it. Parade’s list of dictators makes our foreign aid record even more disturbing. Not only has it failed to promote development, in many cases our aid has supported oppressive dictatorships.\n\nFollowing Hamas’s recent victory in Palestine’s elections, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice threatened to cut off aid to Palestine, saying, “The United States is not prepared to fund an organization that advocates the destruction of Israel, that advocates violence and that refuses its obligations.” Perhaps the U.S. should apply that policy to the dictators on Parade’s list as well. By providing aid to these dictators the U.S. has given them a source of funds to use to secure political support and likely prolonged their oppressive reigns.\n\nThe first rule of development policy should be to do no harm. Unfortunately OECD and U.S. aid have failed to promote development and actively promoted harm by aiding oppressive dictatorships. This kind of aid also unfortunately tends to undermine economic freedom by politicizing economic life in the recipient country and by preserving inefficient regimes. Over the last 30 years development aid has lowered measures of economic freedom in both dictatorships and democracies. To better promote freedom, and consequently development, we should end economic development aid to dictators and democracies alike.\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nBenjamin Powell, Ph.D., is the Director of the Center on Entrepreneurial Innovation at the Independent Institute, an Oakland-based policy think tank and a professor of economics at San Jose State University. \n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nMatt Ryan is an adjunct fellow with the Independent Institute in Oakland, Calif. and holds a Masters degree in Economics from San Jose State University. \n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"We gave $2.4 billion last year; 40 percent of total contributions by all countries," said U.S. Agency for International Development (search) Administrator Andrew Natsios. "We are by far the largest donor — no one even comes close to us."\n\nIn dollar terms, the United States leads the world in foreign aid from government sources. But individual and corporate charity from the United States also exceeds that of any other developed nation, and those donations exceed official government expenditures. Last year, Americans donated billions to international causes.\n\n"Americans give $240 billion overall each year to charity. Only 2 percent of that money is for international causes, so we're talking about $5 billion," said Daniel Borochoff, president of the American Philanthropy Association (search).\n\nThe source for this information is listed below.

This is an interesting question, and it's very debatable.\n\nI'd like to read what others say.\n\nI know the USA provides aid to several of these countries.  They seem to hate the USA yet they accept aid.

Trillions every year (The United States of America Goverment gives over $50 Billion each year to Religious Groups and that is just One Country)
