I know this is probably going to stir up a bunch of crap. I will probably get flamed and every thing else from this post, but this is something that needs to be said. 

Recently there has been a tragedy that has stuck Haiti. All over the world people have reached out. I am fine with that. What I am not ok with, is this country, America, is facing tough financial times from all aspects. We are struggling with keeping companies in business, keeping ourselves employed, and struggling even making ends meet. Yet, so many americans get a kind heart and are donating money, helping out overseas. Why is this? If we can't even help out our own during one of our countries worst natural disasters Hurricane Katrina, why are we all of a sudden able to help out people that aren't even american? Were was all this support when hurricane Katrina happened? It was no where. Sure there was some compassion, but not this much. 

When we help out in other countries, this is our people and our country showing its arrogance. We pay for our arrogance. We paid for it in 2001, and we will probably pay for it again. It is time we stop being arrogant and stop trying to be the heroes all over the world, and be the heroes in our own country!
