Thanks for the ping.

I forgot who said that the measure of the goodness of a society is how it treats its weakest members -- children, the elderly, and the ill and disabled.

The moral test of a society is how that society treats those who are in the dawn of life -- the children; those who are in the twilight of life -- the elderly; and those who are in the shadow of life -- the sick, the needy and the handicapped. --Hubert Humphrey
