We would have to invent the U.N. if we did not have it, which is not an original thought.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If the U.N. didn't exist, we'd be inventing it right now.
We had no idea that this would turn into a global and public infrastructure.
If such a young nation as the U.S. could make it to superpower status, we could do it as well.
We think we have solved the mystery of creation. Maybe we should patent the universe and charge everyone royalties for their existence.
We would accomplish many more things if we did not think of them as impossible.
We could raise prodigious cities and create nations, and explore the universe.
It is entirely up to us to invent our own lives.
The nation... doesn't simply need what we have. It needs what we are.
We don't need a new idea; the idea is called America, and it still works.
We already have - thanks to technology, development, skills, the efficiency of our work - enough resources to satisfy all human needs. But we don't have enough resources, and we are unlikely ever to have, to satisfy human greed.
