The Depravity Goes On

In another case of human thinking gone wrong, a young virgin in Peru is auctioning off her virginity in order to pay for her mother's medical bills. Of course, everyone is in an uproar over the matter. The real problem is not the fact that a virgin is going to prostitute herself to pay her families bills. This occurs every day all over the world where children are sold into slavery, sexual and otherwise. Precious little is done by mainstream society when it comes to them. It's the old out of sight out of mind thing. Perhaps we should be addressing the little problem of global hunger and lack of medical care as a whole? Then we might avoid these embarrassing little public admissions from the poor and the rest of us can get back to ignoring the problems of the less fortunate as usual.
