Thoughts on the Le Guin Piece

I thought the Le Guin piece was very sad, and interesting at the same time.  It also made me realize that this happens today in society.  Many times people see things that are wrong, but they don't care because it doesn't hurt them in anyway.  This short story showed when sacrifcing someone or something, beneficial or not, it sometimes has an effect on people.  People will do anything to get what they want.
