Drunkblogging Modest Proposals

We demand much more Booze Change because we need it.

The word is so screwed up that even our highly intelligent and resourceful President Obama can't deal with its myriad complexities. Things need to be simplified and a drunk, a lunatic or a leftist is needed. I possibly qualify on the first two counts. Farcically Facially radical but really simple change we can believe in offers the only possible solutions and I have them.

In an earlier article, I suggested that some of the country's many problems could be ameliorated by simply moving the Seat of Government (and all of its bursting appendixes) to Haiti. This will not only save lots of taxpayer government money, it will also improve both Washington and Haiti. However, we must not ignore other major problems. Heck, the slaves in the United States still need to be freed. What are we waiting for? This article offers a few additional modest proposals for true change.

The United Nations must abandon decadent New York City and relocate to some less expensive place more in keeping with its lofty humanitarian principles. As a side benefit, the UN Headquarters will become a really cool mega-mosque-community center where people of every race, ethnicity, religion, nationality and ideology can come together in peace and harmony -- as they now do so effectively at the UN. Even though not as close to Ground Zero as some desire, it will be a compromise welcomed by all.

Somalia comes immediately to mind as a new home for the UN but there are many deserving alternatives. Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Iran and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) are among them. The advantages would be numerous. Since Luputa exists only in fiction, it could well be even better.
