UK Riots - caused by class warfare

[GrumpysWife]

in Africa people are fighting for bread and water to survive..in London people were fighting for 42 inch plasma televisions and microwaves ..Need v greed. Wanton violence and greed.

It's just incredible the way people think. On one hand there people holding back the necessities for life in Africa and then in places like London fighting for things they don't even need but they want. And people with so much money they can buy countries but unable to help people that are starving to death. Only Jehovah has the answer, yet few listen.

Actually even the African violence is caused by greed - pretty much all of our problems come down to that one vice. The greed in the developed world is more direct, it is largely the people themselves who are greedy whereas in the developing world, such as Africa, the greed that affects the ordinary people is down to their governments. Many people in Africa starve because greedy political leaders steal money, food and goods so that they can sell them and grow rich. But then even when they have what they need such as a plentiful food supply the greedy amongst the population of the developing world will still steal a television if they get the opportunity. They seem less greedy than people in the developing world, particularly the West, because they have difficulty in providing a stable food supply thanks to their government and endless rebellions, but in reality like all humans there are those who are greedy and selfish and who desire all those luxury goods like TVs and expensive cars but don't want to do the work to earn them.
