Have you seen the millions that live in worse conditions (in the US alone), despite empty housing dwarfing those numbers? Just saying: yes, this is bullshit, but I help shake the feeling that this is what comes from showing corporate America that we, as a people, don't give enough fucks for the latter, so they can more easily get away with this... for even more profit.

In essence, it's symptomatic of the whole "As long as it's not me" mentality.
