If you have the talent, education, and resources to do something important, does that mean you should?

For instance, if you knew with relative certainty that you could be the researcher who cures cancer, or the president who facilitates great international peace, or the writer who authors the greatest novel of the century, does that create a moral obligation or duty to do so?

if the average human life expectancy is lets say 75 for both male and female......how many people does the average person meet in their lifetime?...is there a statistic for this?....i know there is one for how many steps a person takes but what about people met?...would it depend on demographics, work class/field?

I mean, surely it would benefit certain members of society to have theit tattoos removed, say if someone has tattoos on his hands or face and is finding it hard to gain employment as a result. But the prices seem to run into thousands of pounds, even to remove a small one, making it impossible for most people to get their tattoos removed. Why is laser surgery so expensive?

Would our economy boom? Would we all be a little more successful? Go through your house today and look at the products you own, are they American made? Is your car American made? Think about this next time you are out shopping, I know I will be.
