Could the U, N, be shut down for good?

Their list of totalitarian dictatorships just grows,
They’re at the UN assembly and everyone knows,
But we can’t do a thing about it for some strange reason,
Not politically correct and might look like treason.

But something is wrong and they seem to have taken over the place,
And nothing they do in their homeland is considered a disgrace,
And politicians love to get a UN appointment there,
Where they nod their heads and no need to think or say a prayer.

I suggest that maybe the whole UN place could be shut down,
Or maybe have it just for democracies even though appointees frown,
But where do we find someone with the power to do this?
How in hell did we get into this obvious UN mess?
