Ueberroth and Rebuild L.A.
Now is the time for the “lucky” people of Los Angeles to practice a little noblesse oblige . This old-fashioned term means the obligations of the nobility. In these days the nobility are the wealthy.
My suggestion is that almost everyone whose income is $100,000 a year or more, of which there are a great number in Los Angeles, should contribute at least $1,000 to a fund to help those who lost everything in rebuilding. The fund could be managed by a coalition of leaders from various ethnic groups.
