Can the world be fixed?

Or do we have our heads too far up our asses to care?

Zero Boss brought this to my attention and being that I voted for Doctors Without Borders PSA's on our BlogHer ad network....we all should think about this.

How can we get excited about iPhone's and the new season of 24 when this is the state of our planet.

Not only should we be horrified by the tragedy that is going on right now all around the world. We need to be horrified by our media and our short attention spans.

It shouldn't need stupid things like Live 8 and some rock stars and celebrities telling us to think about our planet and the people living on it.

We need to rethink how we live our lives. How the luxury we exist in is partly due to the squalor and horror that others survive in.

We need to think about how not only our governments deal with each other on the global platform but how and what controls the power and corruption of the of the megacorporations out there. Who is calling the shots? Why can't things be 'fixed?'

We can't keep just sending paltry charity to these countries. We can't keep with bandaid approaches to such ENORMOUS problems.

More has to be done.

We need to start asking the right people the right questions and demanding answers.
