Let’s Help Each Other
- Share via
“Cooperation builds barns; competition burns them down” is something my grandfather told me when I was young.
It is ever more evident as time goes by that it is more than barns that suffer from excessive competition. How many more poor people must live on the streets of America before we get the idea? In this disposable society, must we have “chuck-away” children?
The trend in America toward “lean and mean” and many other excessive philosophies is getting ridiculous. Let’s start helping each other before life becomes intolerable.
