Katrina, Poltics, & Governance

Mencius said, "All men have the mind which cannot bear to see the suffering of others. The ancient kings had this mind and therefore they had a government that could not bear to see the suffering of the people. When a government that cannot bear to see the suffering of the people is conducted from a mind that cannot to see the suffering of others, the government of the [country] will be as easy as making something go round in the palm."

It is obvious we have a government that does not care about the suffering of the people because they have minds that do not care about the suffering others. If it did care, it would employ people with brains and experience who would do their jobs to make life better and saner for everyone instead of the clusterfuck we've always had in this country. We have yet to live up to the Preamble of our own Constitution which says:

We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution of the United States of America."
