It seems to me that there is a common problem that I have to deal with on a regular basis. It comes down to a lack of respect for our fellow man. I understand that in this world we have class wars, and we have racism, and we have a variety of other ways to delineate the differences between various groups of people. But it seems to me that the basic problem comes down to the same thing. People have no respect for their fellow man. 

Maybe this is related to an education system that says all people are animals. Maybe it is people who mistreat children and are allowed to get away with it. Maybe it is the political and social rhetoric that goes along with every political campaign. Maybe it’s the freedom provided by the internet and the lack of face to face communications. Maybe these are all symptoms of a greater problem.
