No one ever wants to throw out the baby with the bathwater. So why are there essential ingredients being thrown out when the world is experiencing a global natural and financial upheaval? In other words, where did we throw our HUMANITY?
Is it gone forever? Or will we have another opportunity to rethink just what it is that we are doing? If we do get that opportunity, I am not certain it will be deserved.
Did you hear about the 6 y/o boy in Delaware who got tossed into a 45 day suspension and reform school? He had brought one of those 3 in 1 camping fork, spoon and knife gizmos to school. Brought it out at lunch, and Whammo - ZERO TOLERANCE!!
Wow. I had a ball reading the many hundred comments following that article around the world. To their credit, the school board injected a little humanity into this terrifying situation and the little cub scout is now a bit more intelligent rather than hardened. And it took us until 2009 to get here. I do indeed, fear for our species.
In this day of financial distress, can we not inject a little bit of humanity into everything we do? I do believe that is indeed the missing ingredient in what we have become.
I believe that we are being taught lessons, but we are not learning from them. The system failure of 2005 should never have happened in this country, and men knew that it very well would. 1700 of our loved ones are gone too soon. Many, many thousands of people have had their lives touched by The Thing.
Can we not Mr. Levine, inject some humanity into your Medicaid program? I suspect there would be substantial financial savings if you were to do so.
Be a hero, and be the right man at the right job at the right time.
