Last night I watched a PBS documentary on Hartford, the fuel-making part of the Manhattan Project, and once again I watched in awe at the American ability to meet incredible challenges. We did it with the bomb. We did it with reaching the moon.
Too bad we don't bring the same focus, energy and will to feeding our starving children ... and educating them properly after we feed them. We could improve the world in a generation. But we won't. Sounds too much like socialism.
