SHEESH......have you no small type? AND, furthermore, just how much money is enough? Tell us, please. WE ARE THE MOST GENEROUS NATION ON EARTH....and whatever we give it is NEVER ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sometimes you have to change things ....like teaching people HOW TO FISH, not just giving them FISH. ARE YOU SENDING ALL YOUR MONEY TO THOSE WHO NEED IT? HMMMMM?

Found my small type. In response to goodnesswins (great name, by the way) I agree that teaching how to fish is better than giving fish. That's why I would never just send over a check, or even just food--it isn't lasting in its effect. But imagine if you were living in Afghanistan and your neighborhood school had a plaque inscribed that said "This school is a gift to the people of Afghanistan from the people of the United States of America." A road, a school, a hospital, is something lasting.
