Optically Deluded

When NAFTA went into effect in Mexico (Jan 1, 1994) the poorest regions of Mexico revolted. Later that same year, approximatly four months later, a genocidal civil conflict broke out in Rwanda killing untold numbers, America (as well as the world) failed to respond. Profit without regard for people is not what mankind is supposed to be about....is it?

With the death of 140,000+ in the Asian Tsunami money rolled in to the tune of 7 billion dollars! What then do we say about the 210,000 children who die every week of preventable disease? Governments must wake up, people must wake up, the whole entire first world must wake up! www.amnesty.org
