This seems to be the attitude of too many Americans. It is certainly the attitude of our government and the giant corporations who run it. When did the majority in this country lose its compassion? How can we possibly justify the belief that some lives (ours) are worth more than others (those living outside our own borders)? Why is it so hard to believe the evil that belief represents? Aren't the lives of ALL people equally precious?
This is a more cruel country now than the US I grew up in...everyone is, to quote RUSH (Freewill), on a "fortune hunt that is far too brief," people are out for themselves and will trample on the weak and the voiceless in a heartbeat! I fear for my kids!
