As it unfolds

The world as it is now is a complicated place. We have overworked our consiences until now we cry at every poor country and every slum we see. It's sad how often I see commercials for animal shelters and buy-a-child-from-Africa. I hate this mentality that because a country can't take care of it's own people that we have too. It's absolutely pathetic. We have to hold everyone's hand but when we try and do the right thing, our soldiers and citizens are murdered and we are criticized for 'policing the world'. I think we should take on a policy of isolatsionism again. I mean, every time we reach out a helping hand, it's sliced off by the crooked razor of some psycho religous group or radical government. Screw it, why would help if no one will have it.
