As if we needed anyone to show us what the problem is... We all know the problem already - we just don't give a $#!+...(and that is a real shame). Even more tragic: No matter how many people see this and how hard the point is rammed down their throats, they will continue not to give a $#!+. It's *not* attitude people should offer when they find poverty disgusting, it's money. In fact, those people are basically doing the very same thing that guy is doing when he wears the "F. The Poor" sign...by passing him up when he has the "Help The Poor" sign on...and not giving any help or making any comment; Likely, because they feel guilty. Truth is everything and, in this case, it hurts... Perspective is often just a subjective lie people tell themselves to 'feel better' even though they're really non-compassionate, selfish, greedy hedonists. (Thanks for sharing, John N. Williams!)
