I love how the American Red Cross tries to raise money for all of these other countries but don't pay attention to all of the people in the U.S. already suffering. There are people homeless because they can't afford to live in a decent home and people who's house was destroyed during the tornadoes that went rampant towards the beginning of spring. They simply don't care. One of my close friend's house burned down 2 years ago and they weren't there once to help out. So The "American" Red Cross can go to some other country and stay out of the United States if they aren't going to help us.

Yes. I have said this before to many people. We help people in Africa/Other countries but no one seems to care about the family who's husband got laid off and have no money. Or the children who have no homes and are forced to steal and do anything just to survive.

I see your point but the U.S. residents shouldn't be spending their money on other countries with our trillion dollar debt if it isn't going to benefit the U.S.

Only time I hear of them helping here is big natural disasters.

This is kind of off topic, but what I love is how those compassion companies spend billions of dollars on a commercial or two showing how bad people have it in other countries, but they can't feed the people.

Blows my mind.

I kinda agree.

More people are suffering in other countries.

Be grateful for what you have.

I may not be From America but live in it, but they should stop funding to all the other countries and wars and use the money on school, poverty, and jobs...

The U.S. needs to think now or we will all be living on the streets

And besides, americans choose what company they want to donate to, if they want money going towards america they they wouldnt donate to red cross. Its the peoples choice.
