[quote=Anonymous]What is blatantly obvious is that this is a multi-faceted problem that will take hard work from nearly every segment of society to change. But that's not how America rolls these days. We want quick fixes and sound bites. We don't want to take a close look at our own communities to figure out whether they are contributing to the problems, but we are quick to point out everything else that other communities are or aren't doing. We sacrifice the good solutions for the perfect ones because some group will be up in arms about some aspect of the solution no matter what it is, so nothing gets done. And whatever the solution is, we certainly don't want it to inconvenience us in any way. [/quote]
