America's Shock.
So I am realizing there is something that is universal--an ignorance of the poor and less fortunate are ignored. What is concentrated on is the wealthy, while those struggling to get by or not even getting by are left out in the cold or heat or in this case Hurricane Katrina or Rita.
There seems to be shock that so many Americans in the Hurricanes path are poor up to 25% under the poverty line in some areas.
And that does not even take into account those that are at the poverty line.
How many others in Canada also suffer like this?
With no one willing to be their voice?
