America has several hundred, if not several thousand, people who could be classified as rich.
The Washington DC area alone has hundreds of people who are well off.
Why is there still homelessness in our great city?
On Wednesday, the Washington Redskins signed two players to very lucrative contracts.
Pierre Garçon and Joshua Morgan officially became Washington Redskins.
Garcon, a former Colt, is slated to make $42.5 over five years; $20.5 million guaranteed. His new teammate, Joshua Morgan, a cool $1.8m with almost another million in bonuses down the line.
We're not picking on athletes for making millions of dollars for their talents. Professional sports in America is big business. It also pays big.
That's a lot of money that can be put to charities and foundations to help combat and eradicate life situations of those less fortunate.
Professional sports team owners, big company CEOs and the like, you've got to do better.
It only takes a little to make a big change.
Think about it.
