For everyone grumbling "my tax dollars are going over there," the amount currently pledged by the US gov't is a pittance. What is it now, $350 million? We spent $13 billion on hurricane relief last year in Florida alone.

what people do or don't do with regards to charity is a personal thing. Unless you're a celebrity. Then you use the opportunity to get your name in the papers like Sandra Bulloch did. I find it appalling that people need to discuss the amount of money they give to charities.

If someone can't afford to give $50, they shouldn't feel obligated or guilted into it, which is what often happens.

Done preaching.
