Here is a situation wherein many lives are lost due to the dreaded swine flu. And here are many people exhibiting the extent of their greed for money. A mask is suggested to prevent and use as precautionary measure against swine flu. The demand for the same is just shooting upwards. People not wanting to lose the opportunity to mint money are selling them at exhorbitantly high rates. Rates which are just not reachable by common man.

Greed for money -------> losing values and basic ethics of life.

Yes, very well said akka. One main reason for that is media, which creating hype, and striking fears in the people's heart...a sad thing indeed.

True Lakshmi. We can see the same scenario when we try to buy an umbrella on rainy days.

Do you remember the sale and rate of helmets when a rule was imposed by the government about wearing helmets?

This truth is a bitter one.

People have to learn to use their hearts as much as their brains.

Very True Lakshmi, its greed that stops man from being humane. I hope ppl dont think about their profit in such drastic situations. Thanks for bringing this up.
