don't be. see 186 for an intelligent and logical answer. There are already 500,000 in the United States alone in foster care, nearly half of which will never go home and need to be adopted.

THAT'S where our country needs to place all their social resources and speeches and marches and money. Taking care of the trainloads of orphans we already have.

"There are already 500,000 in the United States alone in foster care...."

Most of these foster care kids can NOT be adopted due to the fact the parents will not release them to be adopted. Also, the amount of true orphans is very small in this country.
