[Vision2020] From the pages of the Nogales (AZ) International

[Pat Kraut]

Here's the thing about wanting to 'feed your children' if they leave the 4
year old on the streets of a border city without knowing who is going to
feed the child I am not impressed with their desires to 'feed' their child.
I am aware that the churches on the border are being flooded with children.
And you are assuming that everyone who crosses the border is very poor and
not just drug addicted. I suspicion that there are many more stories and
some of them involve greed!

"Desire not to live in crushing poverty" is not "greed." "Greed" is
the desire to have more than you need; it is altogether a different
thing when you don't have nearly enough.
