United Nations?

We've all heard a lot of negative news items about corruption in the UN. Kofi Annan's son is tied into the oil-for-food scandal, and there are murmerings that papertrails can be traced into Germany, Russia, and France.

Can the UN function much longer? Should it? If reform is the answer, then what types of reform are needed that actually stand a chance of being implemented?

The Economist is asking the same questions, but doesn't really have any answers. Article

Then you have the right wing groups telling us to get out.

What is in America's best interests?

Reform it? Leave it alone? Close it down? Move it to Paris and tell them to leave us the hell alone?
