And yes, I fully FULLY agree with you Fletch.
Sadly, at the moment, there's not really any FULL world unity to focus and create agencies and structures to address the issues fully; much more 'money' / resources / people's time / services are required to figure out everything.
And the greedy (comparitively % wise, not money figures wise because the size of your economy could be so big because the country is so greedy) need to be stepped infront of by the rest of the world to smarten up; though perhaps a party who's sympathetic, even empathetic will come into power in those greedy economies and simply change and make things work.
That would be a happy day.
