An anthropologist proposed a game to the kids in an African tribe. He put a basket full of fruit near a tree and told the kids that who ever got there first won the sweet fruits. When he told them to run they all took each other's hands and ran together, then sat together enjoying their treats. When he asked them why they had run like that as one could have had all the fruits for himself they said: "UBUNTU, how can one of us be happy if all the other ones are sad?"

That definitive is not the American Way.

Why didn't one kid run and then give the fruit away to friends?

This was also posted by someone on a politically liberal forum and everyone got it without questions.

Only on a science forum do they take issue with the unnecessary depletion of energy. LOL.
