The goverment GAVE $1,000,000 to EVERY child that lost a parent, every child, even if they lost only 1 parent.


Call me mean, but I know lots of kids whose parents die every year.

The goverment doesnt give them shit.

Theyre called orphans, you can see them in state run homes.

Because we were attacked by terrorists, does that mean the goverment should PAY the survivors a million a clip?


Shit when the Federal building was bombed, the goverment gave no one a dime.


Its called Shock factor.

Take an island in the indian ocean with 40,000 residents, a "nation" wipe out all but like 5,000 with a tsunami, and then hand them millions to "rebuild" with.

WTF are they gonna rebuild, they were living in shacks already.


Yes Im mean, Im just honest.

Why not send BILLIONS to Africa where some cities have 50,000 per square MILE living with NO HOMES and living out on the ground.


I didnt send ANY money to the "tsunami" relief effort.
I did however send some to Feed the Children.


Its funny, alot of big name companies werent even going to do donations untill the news said comments about them.


Yahoo was one of the most famous, they didnt fly a banner on their page untill 4 DAYS after it happened and only after they got blasted on CNN.

So they hopped on the bandwagon.
