We live in the richest country in the world. There's plenty and to spare for no man, woman, or child to be in want. And in addition to this our country was founded on what should have a been a great, true principle -- the freedom, equality, and rights of each individual. Huh! And what has come of that start? There are corporations worth billions of dollars -- and hundreds of thousands of people who don't get to eat. (Carson McCullers, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter)and:
Have compassion for all beings, rich and poor alike; each has their suffering. (Buddha)
