$100 MILLION of OUR tax dollars (that we don’t HAVE!!) are already headed that way, not to mention the cost in military support we’ll be giving...for YEARS to come.

When things even out, and there’s someone I TRUST in charge of that newly reformed Representative Republic, I’ll donate physical ‘things’ to get them back on their feet; school supplies, baby needs, shoes, clothing, etc.

Until then? Fuggeddabouddit. I know. I’m so mean...

The Red Cross was deeply involved in Katrina, helping tremendously.

They had a special fund for monies to be used only for efforts in and related to the Katrina mess.

Once they decided they had spent enough in that area, they kept millions of dollars (which people sent to be used exclusively for Katrina) for their general use.

I know people affiliated with regional Red Cross offices that are diligent about being honest, but I'm a bit disappointed with the RC after they pulled that stunt.

People should only give to charities that they are sure use almost all of their money for the causes of helping people.

No CEO of any charity should get over one half a million dollars a year IMO.

$100 million is about $1 for each taxpayer. Puny
