Ack, all nations of the world eh? Thats one BIG "UN"! Hard to see such a huge amount of different angles able to find an amicable "centerpoint."

Of course, on less controversial issues, it could work perhaps. Like if a certain region experiences drought and famine, the UN would provide for them right? Same for other disasters (tornados, earthquakes and such). But what about other issues like nature-earth related things? Like the Rainforest getting slowly obliterated, and pollution, and such.? I work in a patent law firm, and can confirm that there ARE technologies out there that use different types of energy that are less damaging to our planet, but are having trouble getting patented because of big companies that use traditional energies.

In other words, so MANY issues would have to be dealt with by this imagined "UN". A Great idea, well, in a perfect world I guess, which we do not live upon.

Of course, I believe in GOD, and so consider him the ultimate "UN" as I feel he created us, and knows best how to "handle" us, if that makes sense.

Love this topic Ron, very intriguing
