There is nothing wrong with looking at the "now"
We all need to do that. Refusing to look down the road though, or to consider what will happen to others, whether we have progeny to care for or not, is indeed selfish.
I am very thankful that a lot of good men decided to give me a great country to live in, even though they had never met me and never would.
I am very sad today because our society as a whole has failed so miserably in passing that attribute from one generation to another. I raise my boys right, they do care about others and their country. I am really afraid of what their world will be like, and what their country will be like in the not to distant future.
