You obviously don't get out in the real world much. When is the last time you went to a Wal-Mart, Dunkin' Donuts or McDonald's or whatever national chain you've got in your neighborhood? In the real world, it's not just kids out there behind the cash register taking orders. Around here, it's also those who need jobs to support their families who can't afford to take time out of life to improve their lot in life. Get over the fantasy world you live in and take a walk in the real world for once, with your eyes open.
Our Task must be to free ourselves... by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures, the whole of nature, and its beauty.
