How much UN aid or aid from any other countries made it to Florida? I'm betting it was $0.0.

Bingo.

Well, let me answer RJL´s question( How much UN aid or aid from any other countries made it to Florida? I'm betting it was $0.0.) by raising other questions: how much has the US asked other countries to pay? How much did you want Bangladesh, Romania, Marocco or Estonia to give? Why should the people of France, Denmark or Britain pay for the broken TV´s of (mostly) insured people in Florida?

This discussion is reaching the bottom line! The people in SE Asia are suffering from the worst natural disaster since decades and you are whining that Florida - part of one of the worlds richest countries - got nothing? It is a shame. Instead of doing the best to help the victims of this flooding, some are moaning about allegedly missed grattitude and wish a rivalry between the rich nations who gives more. I´m speechless.
