I agree. We need to abolish all languages but one, and let that one
language be at once a natural language, an algebraic language, a
programming language, and unprintable language (because let's face it,
once you do the rest, most people will demand profanity). Once again,
when there is a need, the solution can be found.

http://esolangs.org/wiki/Ook!

This is a very simple language; anyone could learn it in a day. It is
also an expressive language - it can be mathematically proven to be as
powerful as any other on the market (more so than many!). Rick, don't
fork Python; fork Ook and be the true savior of the world!
