Well, there is some correlation, Barcelona has rental bikes and we're a bunch of U.N.-slaved pinko commie-hippy-nazis.

But you were the red-undead before the the bike-rental program, I imagine. How do we know that...joining the U.N. doesn't lead to bike-rental programs?!

Whoa, hold on. Breathe. Just relax. *hoooo* Right, okay.

Let's deal with this rationally. If we can establish that the presence of a bike-program is possible without the U.N., we have sufficiently disproved the correlation.

Therefore, since Denver has a bike-rental program, we can safely ignore the correlation, since the United States has yet to succumb to U.N. commie-pinko-istan.

"At first, I thought, 'Gosh, public transportation, what's wrong with that, and what's wrong with people parking their cars and riding their bikes? And what's wrong with incentives for green cars?' But if you do your homework and research, you realize ICLEI is part of a greater strategy to rein in American cities under a United Nations treaty," Maes said.
So ... his thought process is:

Hey, this actually looks like a good idea. We should do this.

But wait ... this is exactly what the UN wants us to do. Well, shit, we can't do that, then.
He's like a six year old who wants to go ride his bike, but when his mother suggests that he go outside and play--that exact thing he was just about to do--he gets contrary and decides to shit on the kitchen floor instead.

I'd be against just about ANYTHING UN-related, due to it being a dictator's club that should be shunned by EVERY nation believing in democracy, human rights, and not killing un-masse your own people.

That being said, this attack is stupid. It is a potshot at a program that while I disagree should be funded by government (the article says that grants are part of it, which means government funding), the whole thing is rather benign. Just don't make it associated with the UN in any way. That alone is tainting an idea that may work. Or it may not. Either way it's just a bad tack-on that somebody's trying to use as a way to drum up support in a very weird way.

So IMO, UN sucks, this program I wouldn't care about except that why is government funding it? It's not MY government, but still, I swear there are similar things that are 100% private initiatives in Europe, but take that as rumour.
