Would you blame only those millionaires and the wanna-be's for the short comings of Americans?I'm a little cynical on this topic. I looked up some figures not so long ago, (but pre-covid) and it seems there are around as many deaths around the world by hunger and hunger related causes as there are by abortion. It seems to me that Americans, who are the wealthiest nation on Earth, with over a million millionaires, don't want to talk about hunger deaths, only abortion deaths. As I search my all too human nature, I know I find it similarly all too easy to condemn those who sin in different ways than me. Ideally, there would be neither hunger deaths nor abortion deaths, but this moral equivalence in preventable deaths seems to have escaped America, and failing ethical explanations to the contrary, I am tempted to think that the difference is because those millionaires and wanna-be-millionaires find it cheap to condemn abortion, whereas it would be expensive to end hunger and it might even have an impact on their swollen bank balances.
Best wishes, 2RM.
