saintfletcher: "Whether the debate goes to individualism or comunalism, I think I know what you mean."

I cited this dichotomy on the presumption that if there were a more communal economic structure people would not be forced by economic pressures into selling their kidneys to strangers with money. However if we had a more communal economic structure we may also have a more communal social structure and those same people may find they have 'friends' (remember them?) who would actually donate, rather than sell, a kidney.

I have to disappear for a week pls excuse any delayed responses - poof!

Yes, from what I saw I thought there to be a great difference. Cutting a sheep's throat or breaking a chicken's neck seem markedly more humane than the brutal slaughter of dolphins as depicted. Have you ever wondered how great the step is between brutality to animals and brutality to other humans? The Anita Cobby killers practiced on a few animals first. Maybe it developed a depravity in them. Clearly, for humans, the degree of suffering inflicted on animals is voluntary.

I think that slowly but surely this insensitive conduct of the rich and the apparent abuse of their economic power [that is derived from the poor and a morally weak middle class ] will lead to a backlash against them.

The Deprived of the World see themselves as unfairly missing out on the benefits of Capitalism .

We already see the gated communities in Australia to where the rich retreat - insecure and unable to look the poor in the face anymore .

The Liberal and Nationals Federal Government makes sure they can get the benefits of low taxation while shielding their wealth from redistribution .

When A Man or woman sees they will get more money selling a leg to the rich rather than working for them for years for subsistence wages, the world is headed for rapid Social Upheaval and Change .
