I was looking at Yahoo’s front page today, and there was a link to page telling how to help hurricane victims. It’s nice that people want to help, but I think the government should pony up and c0ver the costs. I mean, what kind of government does the US have, anyway? They can afford to carry out a war, but they aren’t willing to cover reconstruction costs for victims of natural disasters? They may say funds are limited, but it seems like funds for the war aren’t limited.

There was a program on Hurrican Katrina on Chinese TV last night, and the commentator was talking about people who were unable to evacuate. He was talking about how some people didn’t have cars, and about the poverty particularly in northern Louisiana and Mississippi. That must have been interesting for viewers to hear, because most Chinese people don’t think the US has any poor people.
