Oh, and in to response about opinions about fixing problems at home first...by that logic we shouldn't spend money on musuems, people shouldn't be allowed to waste money on mansions and private yachts, and Goverment offices should be run out of trailers.
You don't ignore problems, but you also don't let problems get in the way of progress...especially when said progress would help solve said problems.
