Default More politics: is the UN relavant?

This question is starting to get thrown around a lot. Some ideas:

Is the UN relavant?
Is it part of the plan to usher in a global utopia?
Is it part of the plan to usher in a global feudal system?
Should ______ country be in the UN?

Fuck the UN...I don't want a world government..which is exactly what it is. Why do they have a world court system now if we don't have a world government?

The UN becomes less relevant when certain members are able to flout decisions and rulings at will, introducing a double standard and weakening the authority of the UN. I'm not too sure on the veto idea either - they're used way too much, usually when a decision has unwanted implications for a permanent member

We will never truly be united until we all wear the same clothes like they do in Star Trek.

Yup... get ready for the 'utopia.' It'll be great they'll have equal taxation, minumum wage. Everything will be FREE!! I guess despotism and feudalism are small prices to pay as long as our children get a good education.
