| Sending money to the cyclone victims
I feel like we should keep that money here to continue helping the victims of Katrina who live in our own country. How do you feel about sending them money? |

How do you feel about sending them money? | The victims of Katrina have had more than enough time to get back on their feet. Right now there are people who have just had everything jerked out from under them and in many cases there are no relief organizations to help with pressing needs. | |

| I prefer people that want to give, give. Don't see why the government feels the need to give money away. | |

| We want to give our money away so much that we won't take no for an answer? That's messed up. Why does it fall on us to help out every tom, dick and harry when we tell our own people to screw off?
