Thank you for the history lesson. Sad is how little has really changed. Back then Gordon Lightfoot wrote:
Why can't we all be brothers Why can't we live in peace But the hands of the have-nots Keep falling out of reach
Why indeed? Considering what the collective human intelligence is capable of, it doesn't make sense. (Unless, sadly, the majority of the collective human intelligence does not want change.)
Since it's all about choice, I'll continue seeking out those sentient, intelligent beings who do want change (for the better), and keep moving forward. [After all, if a technologically-challenged person, with a steep learning curve (as in vertical) can manage to accomplish some technological feats, there is hope. (TedTalks http://www.ted.com/ are a great resource for hope.)]
