The thing t...That is a truly appalling situation! <br /><br />The thing that troubles me even more is that there are many people who live in similar conditions in North American. Most are aboriginals/natives/First Nations people, forced onto unsuitable land, living in communities where employment rates are 90 per cent, or higher. They are abandoned by government, unknown to/ignored by most people, and attacked by PETA and the like. <br /><br />Poverty is a choice. Not a choice made by poor people, but by rich or even "middle class" people — by a majority in nation. Once we choose to solve the problems here, we will learn how to solve the challenges in Ulingan. The two cannot be separated. <br /><br />Blessings and Bear hugs! Best regards to Emily.
