Most of us really don't care.

We Americans aren’t gonna do anything about creating jobs. One out of six of us are unemployed. But we just sit idly by and maybe say, ‘Too bad.’ Guess that’s because five out of six have jobs. And why fret about those who don’t? That’s the American way. Everybody for himself. As a society, we seem to care less and less about the unfortunate. That’s why it doesn’t seem to bother us that 52 million Americans don’t have health insurance. Because most of us have insurance. And we don’t care all that much about the poor. Because most of us ain’t poor. I guess it’s that most of us really don’t care much about each other. –Jim Broede
