    Yeah, the American donation sounded pretty pathetic. I saw that Canada donated about half what the US did (but has 1/10 the population of course). US should have started w/ 100 mill to keep pace...

    The stingyness was mentioned on the News Hour tonight and the US rep' said they will give a pile more later when they have a better idea about the need... that's probably a better idea in fact...

    Edit -- Actually Canada's initial pledge is twice what the US's is. That's pretty sad...

    When a country spends 900 billion on Iraq, and gives 14 million to multiple countries in need, its BS

    A) The number is 150 billion. Get your facts straight.

    B) We pledged 35 million, get your facts straight.

    C) The US gives more aid than any other country. Stop complaining.

    Well he was slightly exaggerating, but both of you do make a good point. But the US is so rich that they can afford to give more than what they have already.

    yeah but with good reason, its our backyard. We are the sheriffs of this part of the world (and certainly one of the wealthiest countries.)
