Was think of the more charitable years back when I grew up in the 60s. Communities--scratch that word--neighborhoods used to organize food drives, paper drives, we'd return empty soda bottles for $.05. There was a spirit of giving, of real community shaped mainly by the Church without the politicization of community. Emphasis was on donation and contributing rather than on golf tournaments or concerts in the park. The point is that even poor families with children could help by bringing canned foods to food drives at school or church. You didn't have to be middle class and afford expensive marketing campaigns to help out in the neighborhood. And as such, certain people and personalities are so beautiful and they become such become such brilliant forces for good that they are a moral magnet.
We took all our social media revenue and gave it to the people most affected by the toxic explosion in East Palestine.

These reactions say it all.
We don’t need to wait for the government to help out our fellow Americans in need.
