"The Good Earth"

???????

I thought that was a good book. The father tries to impart his wisdom to his sons, but they refuse to listen. The father is a success, but the sons were vultures. I thought it showed the need to observe experience. Yes, money does corrupt the father to a certain extent, but he never loses sight of the value of his land. His sons are only interested in a profit.

I had to read Erlichs "The Population Bomb" which I believed was very liberal but now we're seeing millions of people flooding over our borders and boatloads of hundreds of hungry destitute people pouring onto our shores and I wonder if there wasn't a lot of truth in it. Really I believe it's their unwillingness to change their corrupt governments but a part of me wonders if there really is a population bomb going off.
