Saw a Facebook post, showing the 120F temperature in a desert city in the American west and saying, "All sensible people have already left town."
There are a lot of people who can't afford to leave town, because they have to work to feed their children and have nowhere else to go in any case.
We have a profound deficit of empathy in America.
