What would you say if everyone's name was put into a hat ...I mean, everyone's!?! Well, with the world population well-exceeding 7 billion people, that would be a big hat. So, what if everyone's name in the world was put into a computer program ...and randomly we would be assigned a lot in life.

Would you enthusiastically embrace a program like that?

A person in Syria may jump at the chance to have the computer choose them any alternative life ...as well, would many people living in neighborhoods saturated with violent drug culture, whether here in the U.S., or in hot spots such as Columbia.

There are those who have criticized the 1% in our country, while giving the impression that they are to be hated.  The top 1% of the very wealthy, that is, to be despised.

There is another 1% in our country ...the ones who are doing, in comparison, as poorly as others in the worst parts of the world. That leaves over 90% of the people in our country who are doing better than in lots of places in the world ...yet, they are not grateful, nor content. Much of our problems seem to be that of a comparison issue.
