10. I agree with you
We must re-think our entire value system. In the '30s, it didn't matter what you had, but rather how you treated others. If your word was your bond, if you reached out and helped others, you were a respected individual. It seems that for many now all that matters is what you possess--doesn't even matter how you got it.

In order for our planet to survive, we must change this way of thinking, and go back to the idea that your character is more important than the contents of your wallet.
