What previous civilization are you describing that was more considerate and caring for its unfortunate than the U.S.? I think the word you keep skirting is socialism where, in theory, the working class wield all decision-making power. It's incompatible with capitalism, and we have many modern examples of how it's fundamentally flawed (and for exactly those reasons I provided earlier, i.e. our propensity not to hold our people accountable for poor performance). Your best bet is just to try your best to succeed in the capitalist arena. There are obstacles, but the effects are cumulative, and your progeny will start at a better place if you put forth that effort. --- þ Synchronet þ BBS Doors (www.bbsdoors.com) .
