5 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
but we gave 2.04 BILLION to 117 people in florida, and are only giving 35 million to 150,000+ people in asia?
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?

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...
We go into wars to save people, we kill our own to "save people", but when it comes to just giving money, we're always short.
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.
