Social Justice

Who are we?

And who are we not to take responsibility for ourselves and others?

No matter our status we have a place in this world just as important as the person beside us or in another land. We all have a calling and a duty and such should it be that the brave shall protect the coward and the strong the weak for this is the people that make up humanity.

Yet I cannot fathom the injustice in "justice systems" all over the world and in our governments all over the lands.

These people sit on high perches and one day the time of reckoning will come upon them for they are have taken up duties in offices they do not respect and have failed the people they have taken up appointment to serve.  Great power brings even greater responsibility.

As a mother tends her baby so too must the rich look after the poor, the social the lonely and the educated the labourer and you will see they look after you. Grace them with gratitude and kindness, security and food these are basics of survival to which all mankind is worthy.

Our birthright makes us deserving of all things yet discrimination takes away that which there is no lawful fettering.

It is shameful that parties are not fairly represented in our legal systems. This is not justice nor moral.

It is shameful that male and female workers doing the same job are not paid equally.

It is shameful that women are forced to leave their families to work against their choice.

It is shameful our children are cared for by non family members.

It is shameful many people live below the poverty line.

It is shameful to outsource help to other countries when our own is in need of the same help and being denied that attention by its government and people.

Policies must be drafted to preserve flexibility in Legislation to combat unlawful fettering.
