Quote from peilthetraveler:
Thats a reason I can understand. But I cant stand all these people pretending to be humanitarians just because everyone else is giving. What i am saying is there are alot of people suffering in this world and to give ALL of your donations to one people is just ridiculous. Most people are only giving money to Haiti because the media is telling them to give money to haiti. They did not care about Haiti before the they were in the news. Look at the typhoon in the philippines that did all that damage. It did not make front page headlines and so many people lost everything over there. If you want to help people in this world, help people that nobody is giving to. Go out and find these groups that do not have the benefit of national media attention. There are people hurting in this world just as much as Haiti, but many are not going to get funds this month because people that normally give on a regular basis are now giving their money to Haiti. Haiti has been given enough. Give others a helping hand. You democrats love to spread the wealth, so why dont you do it?
Its like imagine 2 guys living in an area where there is a fire. One guy loses his house and the other guy loses 50% of his house, but maybe only 1 room is liveable and he has no running water or electricity. Everyone feels sorry for the guy that lost his entire house so they give him enough money to build a new house, get him new furniture and even buy him a brand new car. The guy that only lost half his house, well they buy him a cup of coffee and a donut because the media didnt tell you about him and you didnt care enough to look at his house or his situation.
I am all for giving, and i probably give more than most of you on here to different charities. I think its much better to give $100 bucks to 5 different charities than $500 bucks to one charity. And right now everyone is giving all their money to one charity.
Any MORE money you give to Haiti right now, is not going to help them any more. However, giving money to a smaller charity will help so much more.
hey moron - quick! back peddle a bit harder and we may think youre just a dork instead of the biggest tard on et.....
