	Well Dave,  The grim truth is that there are people
starving here in the United States.  I believe the point that
Bob Dylan was trying to make is that perhaps we should think
about our own people.  Fellow Americans starving because they
are unemployed or disabled.  Not that we should help other
people around the world, but lets not ignore problems on
the home front.
