Dog Accessories vs Human Poverty (69)
Scubadiva: Okay, I'm stuck inside because I damaged a disk in my neck and I've got too much time on my hands on mandatory rest... so bear with me and my posts.
Anyway, there's a show on TV where a lady sells dog accessories to rich people. Some little flap to cover a small dog's back sells for the equiv of $ 80-100. There's more obscene, useless stuff for "Fluffy" at horrendous prices that these people go gaga over and are buying.
Then I flipped to another channel and there's a doc about people living in poverty, children covered in dirt and filth, without sanitation and worse, a young boy dying because there are no meds.
(Yeah, this is how I cracked the disk in the first place )

There was a TV program on last night I was watching, where they said that an English millionaire had just bought the world's most expensive dog kennel. It had wide screen plasma TV, cable, even a phone. And it cost £25,000 ($41,700, or Euros 29,000).
Utterly disgusting, when the next item on the news is about people in London living in extreme poverty...

Your contrast couldn't be more eloquent.Sadly, human life has taken a back seat to money, animals and the planet.
As examples: The ones who say that Earth is overpopulated...I don't see them complain about the space they are taking.
Or the ones decrying the mistreatment of animals while a full fledged genocide is going on in Africa.
Or the ones who complain about the taxes going to social programs when corporations are looting government coffers in loopholes for their profit margins.
What will they think of next to express their true hidden feelings that the poor have no place on this Earth?

Scubadiva: Unbelievable
Quite!!
And on and on it will go, this type of madness.
Talk about more money than sense...
Anyway, how does the dog know the right number to call? Has he/she got a telephone directory??
Guess that must be it..

Geezuz... this one woman just spent 1000 Euros on a carrying bag for her pug "Sir so-and-so". She said: "other people spend that money on designer clothing but I wear just a regular t-shirt"...
... yeah, that's capitalism ...

Very clever dog.
. I know of a family in Adelaide who have spent $9.5 million over 3 years renovating their house in North Adelaide 3 times they changed it every year------ This thread is Archived ------
although i love my dogs, and look after them well, i agree with you all, that is just plain ludicrous. It is heartbreaking to see the living conditions of many, and if you have the means at all, you shouldcontribute, especially when you have the funds to waste on such frivolities.
