Will people please have a bit more consideration for others when drafting proposals. I say drafting without its normal nuance of reasoned thought going into it as I can't see much at the moment.
Really, prolonging wars in the name of free trade - that's really had a lot of thought put into it!

If you feel that the UN is peppered with egomaniac fascists who want just a little bit of say in their otherwise mundane lives - then drop me a line and we will try to add an element of free speech and liberty to our discussions and resolutions.

Don't stay away - have your say and remember it doesn't really matter if someone disagrees with you (or me!) :D :twisted:

Have you not seen all the Proposals urging people to feel the love?

I command you to have a threesome with me.

UN forum?

Good point, too busy to realise. Moving.

Well, we recently succeeded in our goal of drafting a proposal that would not illicit the typical "This is a violation of my national sovereignty" response--the Fine Art Act, but we lack the support to push it through. We believe that the UN has been successful in passing the key civil rights resolutions. Now we wish to improve the social client in which we live.

We don't see how the UN can have too much control because it is a voluntary organization and because non-UN members are not subject to UN resolutions. We figure that nations who complain should either work to make the UN meet their wishes or leave. Just don't complain to us without the proper proposals, etc.

Everything violates national sovernty if you vote against it.

If anything, I think the UN doesn't have enough power.

I'm not really talking about that it just seems that the air and general demenour of the UN is not one of tolerating others but of bringing them into line with an unwritten philosophy on governance.

With regards to liking it or lumping it and the UN i wish to stay in and trying and change it from the inside but am wary on censorship for precisely the reasons I stated before - I don't want to write hate mail or anything like that but equally part of this exercise is to say what you want to and exchange political ideas. I find this unlikely in an etherworld that is essentially mob rule - democratic perhaps, but prone to the kind of sensationalism that the western press has so convincingly subjected us to (see Bowling for Columbine)

The UN has successfully implemented what you consider to be important but that is no reason to rest on your laurels.
This is precisely why all governments rely on an intellectual elite as much as the populace for policy creation as the "PEOPLE" cannot be trusted to remain non partisan and would if let alone probably return to capital punishment(as any survey will show). The UN is a demonstation of this.
