Sitting on top of the food chain, it is so easy to say. Fear of losing your spot is where this comes from, leaving you no room for empathy. You will quote the bible as a God fearing person, but will have no compassion or understanding for those who maybe, just maybe had no choice but to do what they had to do in order to take the scraps that fall from those at the top of this food chain.

I am not "on top of the food chain" any more than you are. I do not lack empathy. You need to stop with the uninformed knee-jerk biases . There is ZERO empathy in collectivism. It has never raised any nation's standard of living over the long term, wherever it has been tried, and it invariably devolves into tyrannical despotism.
The best thing I can do for the poor of this world is to pray for them, resist the temptation to push for collectivist "solutions," and resist people who would destroy successful, non-collectivist nations in their horribly mis-guided "empathy" (INCLUDING MANY OF THE USA's CURRENT LEADERS who think and act just like you do.) Why? Because, once any nation or group falls for the horrible siren song of collectivism, NONE of them, (and none of us) will have any hope whatsoever.
Oh...and btw...if we want to talk about arresting those guilty for the economic rape of Latin America over the past 100 years, I will be with you 100%, but again, you don't blame Americans, Americanism or republican Constitutional government for them. You deal WITH THEM.
P.S. Do you know John Perkins? He's a friend, btw...in case that tells you anything.
