We live in a sad world when people start basing the value of human life on economic class. Community Engagement Editor Lori Falce seemed to do just that in her column “Do we owe Titanic sub billionaires empathy?” (June 30, TribLIVE). Shameful. Whether one is a fleeing refugee in a faraway sea or a wealthy exploring person in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean, we need to recognize each person’s worth. Yes, I have empathy for each and every one of these people and sympathy for their families. A life is a life.
