Why do select members of the UN have veto power ?

725 viewsOther

UN was put into place for peacekeeping efforts and yet there r 5 major countries having veto power.
I don’t understand its use, isn’t a proper voting over issues a better way to go about problems than this ?

Does this veto system actually help in peacekeeping efforts positively ?

Most of the 5 security members pay the majority of the UN costs. The USA is not only saddled with the UN in our country but we pay by far the most to the UN. We should have the sole veto power over everything.
