Not All Together

You constantly hear every politician, celebrity, commercial, organization, company, person, etc. say "We're all in this together." While it's a catchy statement it doesn't hold to the facts. If we are all in this together then why do we:

- Have abandoned elderly sick and dying alone in nursing homes and in their own homes?

- Have abandoned disabled sick and dying alone in group homes and in their own homes?

- Have banks, credit unions, companies, etc. say they will "work with those who have lost their jobs" and in practice continue on with business as usual?

- Have schools only teaching those students with high-speed Internet at their home while ignoring those students who do not? 

- Have hours-long waits at food banks across the country with many people turned away with no food while others complain about the lack of toilet paper while they shop in grocery stores?

- Have Federal, State and Local Governments that refuse to comply with Federal law (the ADA) and have ASL interpreters every time they make an official announcement?

- Have big corporations taking Federal money that is supposed to go to small businesses while the small businesses go bankrupt? 

Doesn't seem like everyone is in the same boat as everyone else.
