In all fairness, though, the US does pay about 40% of the UN's bills. 

Is it not closer to 22% of the regular budget and 27% of the peacekeeping budget?

22 + 27 = 49. Take that, earth logic!

and 100 + 100 = 200!    [The 22% and 27% are percentages of two different totals, therefore it is illogical to add them.]

Indeed. That is why I wrote 'take that, earth logic!'
