Is the usa doing enough for asia victims? - 150,000+ dead so far- - Page 2

Here's the facts:

Number of deaths due to four Florida hurricanes in 2004: 117
Number of deaths due to Aceh earthquake and tsunami in 2004: 120,000+
Homeless due to Florida hurricanes: 11,000
Homeless due to Aceh earthquake/tsunami: 5,000,000
US government aid to help Florida hurricane victims: $2.04 billion
US government aid to help Aceh earthquake/tsunami victims: $35 million
Estimated cost of George bush's upcoming inaguration celebration, not including security costs: $40 million
US government direct cost, per hour, of the US war in Iraq: $9 million

Is the USA not doing enough for these 5,000,000 left homeless and those 150,000+ dead in asia?

1025 times more died in the asia tragedy.

The US government gave 57 times more money to the victims in florida.

Doesn't that seem the least bit unfair?

I could begin to find the amount of money the US government gave to 911 victims, but it would be too much work.
