I wouldn't be surprised if the UN morphs into something new within the next decade.
This mentality is something that is killing the Democratic party and helping the Republican party. Normal people, moderates, etc do not like to hear that we are responsible for the world's woes or are a corrupt society especially when we shell out billions of billions of dollars and manpower each year to help the less fortunate in other countries...

By less fortunate I would say sending 20 billion dollars to africa for AIDS research OR sending our troops into any given third world country to stop a dictator from killing off villiages that dont believe what he believes.
