Even though we are the greatest country in the world, we can become better. We can be a more compassionate and welcoming nation.
My wish is that we would have less divisions between the rich and the poor: that the rich should be willing to lend a hand to those who have less and that the poor should be willing to have a life that involves more hope.
Every child that is born in America should have equal access to a good life--regardless where they are born, regardless of who their parents are or what they do.
The circumstances to which one is born should not dictate their future.
America ranks 6th in the world as having the greatest disparity between rich and poor. We can't afford to let this continue. If you remember Marie Antoinette's statement about cake, take heed!
