    On one hand, remains of handful of people are being brought back from depths of titanic - while 750 of them are being thrown into the same depths to be lost forever.

    Property > human life.

    That is the reality of today we are living in.

      Those with the means to retrieve that property don’t consider poor people as human life.

      it’s an easy mistake to make.

        Weeks of coverage over a few billionaires out on a lark to view a shipwreck and this is the first I’ve heard about more than 80 people dying in another sinking.

        The difference is money.
