1. Thank you, my dear pinboy, for this wonderful video...

It brought me to tears.

What a grand little boy! He has such a big heart.

You might cross-post this in GD just so it will get more viewings. It deserves to be on the Greatest Page.

4. Thanks, Peg

This was passed on to me by a VN vet buddy. At your suggestion, it is now cross-posted in GD: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10025501297

2. K/R. I think kids are naturally altruistic. Culture beats that feature out of them.

I'm afraid that our culture teaches them to be selfish and competitive rather than helpful and giving.

The best of humanity just doesn't meet the needs of our commercial economy, which tells us over and over that we are inadequate unless we buy something.

Great post, thanks!

3. PS, here's what the note read:

'Dear Soldier -
My dad was a soldier. He's in heaven now. I found this 20 dollars in the parking lot when we got here. We like to pay it forward in my family. It's your lucky day! Thank you for your service. Myles Eckert, a gold star kid.'

5. Thank you pinboy3niner, and a big "fuck you" to the warmongers who had that boy's dad killed.
