At some point we have to admit that there is a duty and responsibility that goes beyond our individual ledger books and bank accounts.
That doesn’t mean we have to ignore those things but admit that some things require us to look beyond the immediate impact on ME.

We don’t need to throw people to their grave nor do we need to impoverish millions.
