Ethics is choosing to ignore base instincts and do what is positive, fair, nurturing, and for the common good.

In a sane world we would do it because it would make the world a good place to live.

Injustice is caused by deliberate choices that hurt or kill.

When a third party intervenes - by force - and decides what justice is and who gets it - injustice thrives and endures generation after generation.

In jungle societies disagreements and vengence is swift and final. Then life goes on.

We are trapped in a system that has become burdensome with rules designed to create confusion.

A 19 thousand page tax code is an insult to intelligence when a simple national sales tax would actually be fair for all.

All do not want fair - and those in power make sure it stays unfair.

"Justice Delayed Is Justice Denied", is a famous saying. Justice has been so denied in America we can't even recognize it. We are conditioned to lie and cheat each other - a real rat race.

Sad.

We do it to ouselves and whine.

My family has become a law firm (5 so far) just for self survival in a totally corrupt, organized-crime gang system.

Pathetic - but true.
