In my essay contempt, I discussed the importance of tribes and how in a working tribe the people who do things for you are honored.  Catching up on the local news I see that on 9/19/16 four roofers working in the City fell off a roof, and one was critically injured.   On 9/17/16, a 56 year old farm worker, Robert Bassett, was killed while working in West Bloomfield.

So where is the outrage, where are the tears.  These are American workers who make our economy work, and now they are injured, and at least one killed.   We will spend more tears on the death of Gene Wilder, who wonderfully entertained us, versus the farm worker who helped feed my family.

As I was writing this,  I saw the update that the roofer, 32 year old, Jason Regatuso, died from his injuries.
