i don't want to drag this out much longer, but i think you still need to alter the angle in which you look at this. you're attitude is very judeo-christian (which of course is the culture both you and i were raised in), full of "sacrifice"....."do what's best for the group at your own expense" thinking. it's beyond that. i don't espouse sacrifice at all. sacrifice is encouraged by those that benifit from it. it's unnecessary if people are honest...with themselves and one another.
