There is truth in what you say, Edward. Big nations such as America are already putting out lots of money to help those in need (especially 3rd world countries), but there is much more that can be done. As for wars, many of them are fabricated, part of an agenda. Regards // paul

Misguided appropriations. War should be against hunger and poverty, not waged by man upon man. A Senryu I hope many others will read.
