Is it human to want reasonable access to food and water for yourself and your family?
Is it human to want a roof over your head?
Is it human to want access to a job or some other means of providing for yourself and your family?
Is it human to want a decent life for yourself and your family… or is it American?
Is it human to want help if yourself or your family needs help beyond your means?
Is it human to want food if you cannot provide it for yourself or your family?
Is it human to want a home and money if you cannot provide it for yourself or your family… or is it American?
Is it human to want a free education for your children, a guaranteed social security retirement, free police protection, free fire department protection, free health care for you and your family? … or is it American?
