Racial Equality & Poverty Are No Longer a Priority.

Over the past two thousand and six years ago, mankind have made a lot advances. We came a long way, from caveman living with limited resources, to condos and high rises. We are able to predict the weather, navigate through the vast ocean knowing the risks. We've developed airplanes, communication systems, railroads, computers, satellites, and even stopped by the moon. However, socially, the job is far from well done. We still live in a world full of hate, jealousy, and they all lead to inequality. The same man, who has developed all of these advances, is yet to bring poverty to an end. Or they have not pursued the subject thoroughly.

Instead, today we are getting deeper and deeper into the hole, because our energy is spent on divisive issues. We find ourselves more concerned with abortion, gay marriage, and separation of church and state. All of which are not anywhere as important as the million of homeless children, the poor single mother working two jobs and is still in debt. Or the racial biasness present in every aspect of our daily life, whether it is in regards to employment, imprisonment or education. Mankind, for whatever reason refused to resolve this puzzle. And the reason is simple, to keep inequality where it is, in order to serve the hypocrites at top.

When you deny a group of people the proper education, you are denying them opportunity to advance. And in the absence of resources, people result to quickest resolution. Abortion for instance, would not have been an issue, if the mother was economically stable. But it's hard to be economically stable being a single mother, with none or minimum formal education. You see the correlation; everything that we do is a chain reaction. The brother, who is sitting in prison, would have been doing better if he was educated, and had a legitimate career. But with the absence of education, he still had to survive, forcing him to become a criminal. All he did was sell dope, to get bread, and pay rent. Unfortunately, in the absence of formal education, and a corrupt childhood, he was left with limited resources. His natural instinct to survive, overrides anything. Given the necessary outlet, he would not have gone that route. Inequality made him a jail-bird and turned the single mother with the two jobs to a poor. I wonder what her child will grow up to be?

After all, individually we are all responsible for our action, and there is no other excuse. However, mathematically speaking, racial inequality and poverty are the nucleus to all of our societal problems. To continuously ignore them and concentrate on the membrane issues, will resolve nothing. It might fulfill the vision of the 2% filthy rich cowards, and only during their time here. For the rest of us, what goes around comes around. Fight racial inequality and poverty, at least in your heart. Now that's a real issue that is worth voting for. Take a look at the charts below, and make your own interpretations of it.

These are points well taken up. The 'Man' had better wake up soon before this volatile chemistry explodes. Poverty is no accident. It breeds gun fodder for present and future wars. When this contempt karmically turns, as it will, on those fueling violence it won't be pretty.

In our protest all poor people must stand united. It'll take disobedient protest, boycotts and shutdowns to do the job of dismantling the current regime. Don't wait for things to 'get better' or for the rich to wise up.

I think it can only get worse, I hope and pray and strive for better, but it's taking it's toll on even myself. like you charts indicate a negitive corrolation, the poor are taking care of the poor and pretty soon, (right now) The poor wont be able to take care of each other. And all we will have left is hope, not to say that all rich are wicked and all poor are saints but I agree fully with you that we live in an unbalanced society full of inequities where the issues that matter the most to 6 billion people in the world are being ignored, while the other 1/2 billion are making things worse. My thoughts today are on why 6 billion people can not resolve the issue of 5 million? What do you think?

Thank You Sandra for your comment....I think the day that mankind realizes as whole that our purpose in life is more than material., will be the day that the 6billion+5 million will co-exist in a fair balanced society. Till then, all we got is hypocryts, hyenas and the hunted!!!
