The place I was in at the time, it was a struggle to convince myself that I should shower more than once a week and not cry over how I was going to find the money to buy my kids socks. When life is that stressful and depressing, it's hard to see and to take on more issues than what you're already trying to overcome on a day to day basis.

Again, I used to think that people in power couldn't be that evil, but now moving past that place I can see how keeping people down, under pressure, and uneducated really does benefit certain groups.
