I think a lot of us are talking about it - just our voices are not loud. Mostly, because they aren't backed up by bags and bags of money!!
This is not new. We just had the illusion that "modern" life would be different. The church has been exploiting people for a couple of thousand years and so have the kings and queens.
We thought that people like Marx and Engles or Che Guevara would change the world. One kind, the ones like Che, got killed, often by the Secret Service of the US and other nations. The others never attempted to live that equality themselves and their ideology led to nothing but mass murder and state capitalism - still money in the hands of a few.
Arggghhh - you got me started. The incredible injustice we are living now and have lived for centuries does make me sick. That we have food which gets destroyed and tons of people starving. Sucks!!
And the leaders we have here, in Russia, in many African countries....... Can't even wrap my mind around it!!
And Apple has - what is it - 260 billion - stashed away. A number way too big to even wrap my head around. This "it is never enough" attitude is beyond comprehension.
Charity is good, but not the answer. I think having lots of small businesses again to fill the needs lets us be more independent of the "big" guys and actually allows people to make a living....
How in the world did cute little Lemon girl get you going on how much the world sucks?
And money laundering stinks!!!!

I agree that injustice has been a constant in mankind, however I tend to make a difference due to the hyperbolic progress we enjoyed just in these few decades. I want to explain a bit clearer: there's no alibi anymore, everyone can know and learn if they want. Internet took these excuses away from us, and just left each one of us with a big responsibility. With great tools comes a great responsibility in how to use them. And this is the point, noone can say "I coudn't know" nowadays. That's why it's important to raise our level of awareness and pass to the action. But why I write such things? I didn't put any puppy / boob / funny story here...so this article is going to be neglected as it's to be ;-P Thank you sincerely Marianne for your contribution..you're someone with a heart.
