I think in China they are now telling their children, “don’t waste your food, there are children starving in America.”
And their kids probably say the same thing we said: “How does me eating my food help a starving kid somewhere else?”
Anyway, if my post is rambling and off-topic, let me close with this:
“Activists” are a waste of oxygen.
Mine was, “So mail it to them.”
Then, when Thiopian Airlines became the Launch Customer for the Boeing Dreamliner, I wondered in horror, “What do they serve for inflight meals - my leftovers from the sixties?”
