The contributions of a country as a percentage of their GDP is pretty irrelevant in terms of the question that is being posed.

What you are saying is that the United Nations could survive as a relevant world entity after losing approximately a fourth of its budget, a third of its peacekeeping budget, its $450 million HQ building (which would cost $1.2 billion to replace) and the membership of the most influential (whether anyone likes it or not) nation in the world.

Please help me understand that logic.
