text: why is their so much tragedy in our world? is it because we have chosen wrong leaders of our time, that has caused death and misery around the world and  have no human value. i don't think we are able to pin point a specific reason why.  even though i hate bush and everything he stands for, i can't blame him for everything that happens, but i will blame him for everything and anything that has to do with the government, like help to katrina victims, sept 11th, the war in iraq, the deficit spending, social security's bankruptcy... things of that nature.  but there some even worst things happening like natural disasters killing hundreds of thousands that you just can't blame on anybody.  i guess these are the times we're living in and we should pick leaders who are apt and know how to handle such conflict and tragedy.
