Re: [Marxism] One Laptop per Child

The idea sounds good overall, but it also seems like another example of
Americans having misplaced priorities. Along similar lines, I've always
thought it was kind of uniquely American for a human being to live in a car.
Doesn't it seem kind of backward for a person to own a car and not own a
home? Now we're trying to go to Africa and tell people who don't have
running water that they need computers and e-mail.

It just seems to me that children who are dying of malaria, AIDS,
starvation, civil war, etc. have little use for computers.
