the world turns but nothing changes

It's amazing that human suffering can be met with such indifference by the people who are better off. When you cant identify with the need of someone, it is almost impossible for you to care. It freaks me out that there are people in this world who knowingly "screw people over" for personal gain (no need to look far, u might know some of them). After viewing injustice to the powerless for so many years, you would think that I might get used to it, but it seems it still bothers me. My problem is, "what do I do about the injustice around me?" Like many others who just pass by and look the other way, I have too often chosen to ignore the fact that atrocities are being meted out to people who deserve better.

I wonder sometimes if it is a crime to live in parts of this world where your economy is feeble and vulnerable. People can just come and "violate" your need for basic needs. It is funny in a serious, haunting way that cheap labor means the workers are paid "crap" while the "investor" reaps ...well.. a lot. The government gets their cut, the CEOs get their cut and the workers/indentured laborers get next to nothing which they are thankful for. They call it cheap labor as if human toil and sweat is cheap. There is nothing cheap about a person and his/her willingness to do an honest day's job to survive in this world. The human spirit and soul have no price, and no deed goes unpunished.

Well, its true...there will always be fortunate waiting to prey on the struggling...the world turns but nothing changes.
