Trump should defund the OECD

President Donald Trump has asked Secretary of State Marco Rubio to review all international organizations to determine whether they are “contrary to the interests of the United States.” When Rubio delivers his report later this year, one of his recommendations — perhaps even at the top of the list — should be stopping the flow of American tax dollars to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.

The Paris-based OECD was established after World War II and initially focused on collecting statistics and producing benign reports. It was not an overly productive use of taxpayer funds, but at least it was not doing damage.
