Empathy Deficit

In a recent interview with Oprah, Barack Obama says:

"I often say we've got a budget deficit that's important, we've got a trade deficit that's critical, but what I worry about most is our empathy deficit."

Oprah asks, "how do you actually get people to be more empathetic?"

Barack answers, "Images, actions, and stories always speak the loudest...to move people, you have to tell stories."
