ECONOMY DRIVING AWAY HAWAIIANS AND THEIR ALOHA
Unless we immediately find a way to preserve and help Hawaiians, the tourism industry will soon find aloha harder to sell.
With the cost of homes soaring into the millions and thousands of Hawaiian families being forced to move to the US continent, we are depleting our greatest natural resource for aloha.
Regardless of myopic rationalization by evolutionists that Hawaiians were just lucky they got here first, the place we live and the reason we love it is purely Hawaiian.
As Hawaiians lose their young to hopelessness and despair and moving away, aloha is in trouble.
The Hawaiians who grow up angry all go to prison, and the poor wind up living on the beach until we roust them.
Those of you who found no problem in plopping $100,000 or more down on a home just to resell it - including brokers who buy their listings - are adding to the problem if you don't reach out and help others who can't.
Greed, selfishness, nepotism and a lust for control are western concepts and have no place in Hawai`i.
