First of all, i've not read all comments to this letter, so if i'm repeating anything already said, i'm sorry.
Second, i'm 27 years old. I'm a programmer (software engineer) on the Portuguese public sector. I am almost 30 and i'm still high on the "left wing". Not a communist, but a sociallist! So what? I believe money isn't the only thing that matters like this Clemmens sir... Yeah, we must be paid. But everyone has to contribute with something to the community!
Like someone said on some other comment, Doctors Without Borders do it for... FREE! Some people are SO short-sighted, that they make me sick!
Mr. Clemens, you will not probably read this, but i dont care! If most people think the way you do about life, no one would help their neighbour. Come on!
Doctors Without Borders wouldn't do their work if they had your attitude. And, yeah, they surely haver "bills to pay". We all have.
It's a "new" notion that "some communists" have invented: community service. In some cases it can even be charity.
With some imagination you can even earn your life with it. You can do your software, and sell custumizations of it! Well... Is it difficult to understand? COME ON!!!!
Some people are immensely stupid. An open letter? Grow up... Go help your neighbour! It may teach you something...
You can be happy with just a smile in return of your hard work. Money can make the world go round... But it isn't just the most important thing...
I'm really sad. :(
