From Dirty Empire:
The poverty and desperation of the few can dramatically affect the welfare of the many. Instead of actually addressing that reality we sweep it under a rug, much as we hide trash in a landfill, while others turn it into big business. The commodity? Human freedom, in the land of the brave.
Solutions:
Direct more tax money to the state services that improve communities and preclude individuals within them from resorting to crime. It is in or own self-interest to support each other. Opt out of fear and into awareness of the socio-economic conditions of the lives of others.
