I do nice things for the Marshallese.  It starts out because I'm just nice, because its obvious the position I'm in versus the position they are in.  Then it gets a little historical.  We screwed them over, well, we were the last ones to do it, but we overachieved.  In the end the system we (the good ole US) set up for them left them screwing each other, much like we screw ourselves over, without really realizing it.  My kindness towards them, ends up being because they are incredibly nice, fun, smiley, happy people in spite of everything they have to know we have done to them.  Its been generations, but they know, and they still just treat you individually.  If you are nice to them they are nice to you.  Don't take this wrong, I'm not near as selfless as I wish I were, but I respect the hell out of them...and maybe that's as much as my hypocritical self will allow ........sigh
