Food, shelter, security, and the right to choose how you live your life.

You do not have a human "right" to any of those things, and certainly not for free. They're all privileges

Food and shelter are neither rights nor privileges.

They are necessities.

So I don't understand how SO MANY here can witness SUCH HORRIBLE suffering and just shrug it off as poeple do NOT deserve to live healthy and reletively happy lives. There is indeed MASSIVE suffering in our OWN country but suffering in "third world" countries can be alleviated with VERY LITTLE money and effort compared to the expense of caring for those in the US.

Many of the countries in such turmoil would require our full attention for very extended periods of time. Take Haiti as an example, as much as I hate to say this, the earthquake may actually turn out to be a positive thing for them. Their local governments were not much more than the strongest local gangs. With all of this attention someone may stick around and help install some order there and create a better environment for them to live in. In Haiti, before the earthquake, if your were cruising down a street and saw plywood or cardboard lean to, you were looking at someone's house! Let's hope this international attention benefits them. God willing.
