Concern of America

It seems to me that every time you raise your voice, people are always there to listen. Is it the fact that people think your trying to make a statement? or does it make me a better person if i speak louder than you? If i want someone else's attention i have to raise my voice, just like i raise my fist to the sound of Rage Against the Machine. Now i believe we should all raise our voice and ask questions when we need answers. The government should be scared of us, not us of the government, and thats when you know there's a problem. 
We the people of the United States of America should be concerned of what the government is doing, but we rather sit on our couch, turn on the television, watch the news, and eat all the bullshit they feed us. We are so concerned of our own wealth, our own self, that we don't care about anything else that's not benefiting from.

equality

Last week, i was in modesto california, while i was in 6th street and I street, walking by. I couldnt help but to see so many homeless walking and sitting down in the floor and asking people for money. So it occured to me, to greet one and buy him some food instead of giving him/her money. i bought the food, he didnt say thank you at all, so i was guessing that his parents never taught him any morrals. i could see that i made a difference in his life, you could tell by his smile. i felt good because i helped someone, even though i didnt really do much. question is, "what would you do if you had the power to change someone else's life? would you do it.? would you let that person be responsible for himself/herself and let them get to something, let them acquire something without no help? in a world where people are born with advantages over other, where i didnt choose to be poor but i was born into this situation. where a rich man inherited their family's values, money, and reputation. a world where we are all equal would be a better place, a more successfull place. where people dont have advantages over others. where we would equally work hard to acquire something in life. where we dont have much competition. the world would be a better place. 

sincerely,
