What I have Learned (with apologies to Edward Kennedy)

Two hundred years from now, will people ask, "What was wrong with us?" We had exceptional prosperity, exceptional bounty, exceptional resources. Will they say, "They had the opportunity to do something about hunger, and they refused to address it?"

A shame that we have had so much opportunity to make a difference, because it would have been the right thing to do, yet we turn our backs or turn a deaf ear or simply do what is easy -- nothing.
