Are we supposed to allow people to become martyrs to a free-trade ideology that deems them irresponsible? What kind of society does that create? [/B]
Why are they hungry? What has happened to them that they are not in a position to lead productive, self-sufficient lives? Is it possible that the social engineering experiements have put them in this position?

One does not need to be a saavy investory to put money into a passbook savings account. The returns of doing so are far larger than the fraction on the dollar most will see on the SS donations in future.
