Precisely. And yes, they are a part of "the problem". But this is a separate issue from the specific point I was addressing which was concerned with how natural affiliation contibutes to a lack of compassion for others, and the increase in confrontations and litigations relative to duration of association or encounter. One would like to eliminate most of the casual disputes that occur in passing and toss them over the shoulder. Of course, many of them are simply intended to test the luck of a system that favors money, power, and connections--and disregards "justice" entirely. In that respect, I suppose my criticism is chaff in the wind...as in Psalms one:

"The ungodly are not so but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away". Good memory, huh? At one tine I had half of them memorized. Oh well...
