I am throwing out a suggestion for the UN. It involves a bicamberal assembly. The upper chamber can be modeled after the US Congress. The upper house can be like the US Senate, with the representatives in that house appointed by the heads of the countries that are members. The lower house can be like the House of Representatives, with for example, each state in the USA, by popular election for a 2 year term, elects one member of the lower house. Maybe the change would make the UN more democratic. Each nation remains totally independent.
This is a free-speech blog and is not owned by the corporations or the rich and powerful. This is a blog of the people. I am a environmentalist socialist (kind of like what they have in Sweeden). Feel free to comment on this blog or give constructive criticism of this free-speech online newspaper.
-Quote from George Washington-
"When the government fears the people, we have liberty, but when the people fear the government, we have tyranny." - George Washington, American Revolutionary and first President of the USA
