Don’t
take the nation for granted An extraordinary
90 percent of Americans admirably support military action in retaliation
for the terrorist strikes on the United States, according to the
latest polls. Equally extraordinary is the large contingent of dissident
college students and other young people who think the United States
should refrain from retaliating, and who in the same breath condemn
American principles and vow to dodge military service, should a
draft become necessary. |
It’s
a government for big businesses Earlier this
year in South Dallas those citizens living in the Emanuel Apartment
complex were left with only one source of drinkable water thanks
to the management of the complex. Scenes appeared on the nightly
news of girls and boys, men and women carrying buckets of water
back to their apartments from a spigot located at the edge of the
apartment complex. |

Give
selflessness a ‘little’ try Imagine that
you are late for a class. Rain is pouring down, your homework was
due five minutes ago, you woke up too late to eat breakfast and
that test you took last week will probably be coming back today
with nothing but a big, red F. All in all, it is not a good day. |
