I think we do a lot but I also think that sometimes the places we send help is in vain. IE the war in Iraq, but I suppose that is a whole other blog post.
This might be my view but I guess I am entitled to it. How many people could we have helped not only in this country but around the world with that kind of cash and resources. It is a shame that some politicians are on the hill just for their own agenda.
I feel bad for all the people that have been hit by all the disasters it is a horrible thing to have happen to them.
Back in WWII we would send air drops to help our troops but I watched on the news we were having trouble getting supplies to the Haitian people? What happened no parachutes?
I really don’t have much to say on “Do we do enough?” other than no not always. I think we waste a lot with the aid we give out. Not much of what we give even makes it to it’s destination but the United Way CEO has a pretty cool car and house!
I am glad though that when the poop hits the fan and we try to step up to the plate and do the right thing, it shows integrity and values to help our fellow man…

I agree that most of what we send never gets to where it is suppose to and that is really sad. The Unites States has always stepped up to the plate when it comes to helping others and that makes me feel really good.

Where’s you button??
It’s a good thing though that even during the roughest times, when the worse seems to come out in many people, the best still manages to come out in many others.
And yes, where’s your button?! 😉
oops, I forgot my button… I was so into the post I missed it!
