Should the Moon belong to the United States?

Whether it is the moon, or any cosmic body above or equal to the size of New York City, it should be deemed the property of no one, but the property of all living beings. No one nation should own any such cosmic body. Perhaps, a UN-like international league of justice, who, in the words of Lincoln, are "of the people, by the people and for the people" should govern the heavens. After all, in the words of the great humanist Eleanor Roosevelt, "[People] are like teabags. You dont know how strong they are until you put them in hot water."
