Uniformity is not a characteristic of nature, but all humans, each one unique, are entitled to respect and dignity whether they fit some ideological mold or not. We should also work toward developing the kind of economy that provides a useful place where all people can find work suitable to their abilities and that will provide them with a living wage. The current U.S. policy, dictated by multinational corporations, of encouraging manufacturing and assembly jobs to move offshore is evil. It has deprived millions of Americans of the opportunity to work at jobs that pay a living wage. If we don't achieve an economy that will allow a single bread winner to provide for the family, then all the problems attendant to children will never be solved.
Every child needs a stable, two-parent family, and a living wage can help achieve that.
These pages are dedicated to all kids, but especially to Riana, Maia, and Christopher.
