Is America Becoming a Third World Nation for Kids?

Hey, how about this. When America’s children live in squalor and don’t have any food, we can call it a Third World Nation for kids. Not before then.
I really want to believe what you say is true. This country is in so much debt and Obama’s not really helping matters. The economy still seems pretty shakey. The problem is we’ve realized that ‘compassionate capitalism’ works here in the US, but what about abroad? The fact is our economy is tied to the world! If the market crashes in Japan, we feel it here. If China decides that they don’t want to loan us any more money, chances our we’ll be going bankrupt.
Yeah, and just wait until we go bankrupt..then China will own us. What happens then??
I know this issue is far more in depth than this article. But to anonymous, we have people and children and families living in squalor without any food. Go to Mississippi (for example, there are many others) into their poorest counties and see how those children/families live and what is available to them.
I think each comment has its value, but to blame Obama etc is not the answer. We are all reponsible for children, just look around and there are hungry children in your neigbourhood. Are you feeding them, teaching them to read? There are many many organizations doing good. No I do not believe we are becoming “the third world” but there are many homeless children who need our help. What are you doing to help?
Kelly and Angel,
Thank you for being the voices of reason. Most comments have become nothing more than political sling shots and goofball rhetoric with no real thought to the subject matter.
If people put their faith in Corporate America as their savior they are sadly mistaken. The very reason why middle class Americans have no employment is due to the Business class doing what it can to outsource and make big corporate profits with no regard to the employee or community.
As for corporate social consciousness, it does not exist. It has become a big PR scam to fool the public into thinking companies ‘care’ when there is great evidence they do not. Do not be fooled by the advertising they promote.
I am somewhat shocked at the postings I am seeing everywhere on line and how misinformed people have become and how we refuse to hear the truth as it is painful. At some point the truth will be revealed and the longer it takes the more painful the outcome.
If you don’t think American can become a third world nation, then read the history books, the Chapter is called, “The Fall Of Rome”!
Is the author of this article crazy or stupid? “Compassionate capitalism”?
Hello! egekded interesting egekded site!
This post was very well written, and it also contains many useful facts. I enjoyed your distinguished way of writing the post. You have made it very easy for me to understand. just stepped out of a Terminator movie, with a Bluetooth cellphone headset clipped to the ear, and talking into thin air, pretending it is the most natural thing in the world, not to mention ultrachic; perhaps they don’t realize that they look like those early adopter cell phone enthusiasts from all those years ago.
WONDERFUL Post.thanks for share..more wait .. …







Third world country? Quite a stretch there…
