35 million will buy SO SO much more stuff over in a 3rd world country than down in florida....
trust me, I have first hand experience and I highly doubt that they will stop at the 35 million |
7.2 billion is the price of all the damage, many more people need food, shelter and medicine, America should give more.

this might sound cold, but maybe america isn't giving that much because it's not america that had the problem.
i mean it seems the government right now only cares about terrorism and there's no poseidon for bush to hunt for, and the economy is in the poopter still... |

The numbers don't add up. And it wasn't a third world, there were pure hotels there. That's why it was a prime turrist locaton and over 7,000 non-asian people are still dead of missing. It just doesn't add up. A little while ago they were only giving 3 million. Now, since all the chritisism form other countries and the UN they ten folded their price. but it's still not enough. We waste more money killing people in iraq than we do saving people in asia. dubya tee eff is up with that? Quote:
We've got our priorities fliped up. In bush's world, war is #1. Then the american economy. then eating. Then remodeling the white house. then, after like 50 more steps, then it gets to the sanctety of the world. We can't be a nation of the world if we don't act like it. Let's face it- america is the richest, most powerful country in the world. and yet, we act like not only do we not give a poop about it, we intend to make it more poopty. It just doesn't add up. It's not fair. |

Man the u.s. no longer has the true capabilities of designating that much money to a seperate non-goverment disaster. The amount of money going into homeland security and the amount of money owed in imports from asia are sky high. Meaning that at the end of the day we are in the hole (red ink) in certain markets. Money of that kind of magnitude will nowbe designate to homeland issues. If it were a country that was in some sort of alliance or in a position for us to profit from yes we could do more. Unfortunately we are in a republican era and that's just not the republican way.

So far japan is fliping us to the daylights. They've given 500 million. and we're supposed to be the greatest nation on earth? We gave florida victims 2.04 BILLION. and we can only scrumge our left overs for these 150,000 dead? We're supposed to be the best nation in the world. We should start acting like it. |
