yes im afraid so.

how have you proved me wrong?

So you're letting him get to you eh?

something is still missing from this board... hmmmm

Hey, just because you're wrong ALL THE TIME, don't blame me for pointing it out.

You know what I love? Capital letters.

Im starting to hate comradesurf, how about the rest of you?

Saying that the U.N. wants to crush the entire world under a jackboot of totalitarian diet control is a lie. It's outrageous. I'm not quite sure if you are a liar, but you certainly are a SMARMY, venom 'n' pus filled hateful, wrongheaded person who spends most of their time making INCREDIBLY CONDESCENDING dismissals of everyone with dissenting view points as barely worth considering as human. You are one of about two people I know who are perfectly described by the term "*******."
Oh, sorry. "A-s-s-hole."

Nu Shoes

Oh right... thats why I cant be in groups like that. Guess my only hope is American government.

Stop lying.

**** the UN, what a dumb idea.

The U.N. is perhaps the single most elitists, insane, corrupt organization on the face of the planet. It wants to regulate virtually every aspect of human existence, under the guise of helping people. The latest tack is to "fighting obesity" by regulating what foods people eat. No doubt, eventually, the mechanism will be to tax or ban anything remotely considered "unhealthy". It has virtually destroyed all independence and sovereignty in most of its member nations, and created a group arrogant, elitist demagogues who dictate from on-high what nations and individuals alike must do and how they will live day-to-day life. In that sense, Joey's correct about it being a Communist organization. Communism - not as much in the strict economic sense, but in the cultural and governmental style, the U.N. is truly in line with Communist values.

... so back to the main topic

sounds cool thus far send me more info please. if it interests me further i'll be happy to help out.

Communism is not what you all believe it is at all. You think of Nazi Germany as communium. Well yes that had the communist title but they were nazis. Real communist's are not nazi's thoses are two very diffrent things. Communisum is defined as;"a political system charaterized by a centally palnned economy with all economic and political power resting in the hands of the central governing power. So before you call communist about something you should know what it is and what you are talking about. The goal of communisum is to share equal wealth and goals that everyone should work together. The probulm with that idea is that people all over the world are greedy and will take what they want to make them happy it is all about me me me attitude that people have and we take pride in being better than someone else. So having one governing power may sound good it would not work at all. EVER how many of you all want to be told by some person on the other side of that world that is good for you. That idea would not fly. Read American History the whole war with England was about people being rightfully angry with being told what to do and being repressed by an unseen force. So I am sorry but I vote a BIG NO to your idea.

Joey, seriously dude, go take a history class, read at least the Preamble to the UN Constitution, something. Jeez, everything is communist to you. Besides, we don't live in the 20s or 60s anymore, some people are communist, deal with it, it's not a crime. There is no great communist nation threatening to nuke anybody. I'm sure the UN does not support communism, as it was formed by an American president just after WWII.
As for the issue at hand, a governing body will be very hard. Do you know how many unions minors at fast food (esp McDonald's) joints have failed miserably? We are cheap, unskilled labor. Let's deal with that. Or deal with lying Tobacco execs. Or the voting age. Or teen pregnancy. But let's deal with it as a united people, in a peaceful manner. A global governing body will be seen as a too powerful or bullish and will get no cooperation from the outside world.

"Either you agree or you disagree. Either an American or a Communist."

Shut up, Joey. You have no value.

We the teen generation of this nation, as well as the world, are the minorities of the political systematic failure of the adult generation who make policies that will afeect generations to come who will someday have to make important decisions on life and all aspects of it...As far as a Teen U.N. or (International Outreach Union) as I would call it, (Teen U.N sounds like were trying to create an Independent Nation) would be a great alliance of the youth in this nation as well as the world who could state their stances on policies that will affect the world we live in, but the main question is how does one "TeeNation" get such support and voice in their gov't. to institute change in their countries gov't. with an affective voice?...

It's good idea in some aspects but what would be the downfalls of such power, and how whould they recieve contributions, and support?

Alliances are great as friends and voluntary exchanges, but not under a world governing body.

Look at the European Union right now; no country with independence nearly, and the tax rates are sky-high.

That's Communism. It's something Hitler wanted and couldn't maintain successfully.

It's creeping to the US in the form of these "teen UN" chapters and crap.

That's communism pure and simple.

Joey, you have no grasp of international politics.

I don't like the U.N either, but the whole, communist this! And Communist that! is getting old.

We are apart of a planet, and that planet is made up of several contries. We are all responceable for keep the planet stable. We need some forum to discuss world affairs.

Jase is an international communist, and whoever else believes the United States should be subject to UN authority is also a communist.

that would be really cool i would totally be into that
