I'm in the same position. I have children, and can't imagine putting my life on the line for an ideal, because I don't believe it's my life to give.

My point was more towards the fact that my ability to make a choice on location to live to match my ideals is directly related to others who make those places a reality, and I'm acutely aware of that. I recognize other that work hard and may make the ultimate sacrifice to make the world a better place so I don't have to. That's the least I can do.
