This year I've paid hundreds of dollars in taxes, so that money is being used by the government to send a couple of helicpoters to Phuckit Indonesia, so I did my part, and sent a helicopter.

We can keep throwing money into this, but at the end of the day, theres no one actually trying to allievate the situation, doing such things as helping to rebuild.

I can't blame people for not going to Indonesia, as I myself wouldn't.

I'm fairly certain that only people with experience in international disaster relief are being let into the region.

I'm not going to donate anything, because of something that could have been prevented. If this had happened in America, a few hundred people would have died, not 160,000. Even if America had been damaged, those countries wouldnt help us. Some European allies would help us, but not Thailand. Also, money is not what those people need. They need medicine, men, food, and water.

Plus we already in a big enough debt.

Erm, you're daft, if that happened in the US the casualties would be many times worse.
