If the Appalachian people, and the Indians and the New Orleans residents, and the people in the ghettos and?

victims of crime and AMERICAN orphans obviously need money. Why was over a BILLION dollars "lost" and now totally unaccounted for overseas. The shipment of money landed safely and the bundles of money were forklifted into a warehouse but since then, cannot be tracked. Why are BILLIONS continuously being sent and squandered overseas when so many people need it here?

    You raise a very good point, have a star.

    I've always wondered the same thing, we have so many homeless and forgotten kids right here, let the people of other nations TRY to take care of themselves for once.

    Just yesterday there was an article about homeless veterans, how there are so many..that to me is a real shame. I know of a man who lost his leg in Viet Nam, he received a purple heart for his actions..yet he's begging on a street corner..IN WASHINGTON D.C.!

    As for the money that vanished overseas, I don't believe for one minute nobody knows where it is..it's lining some group of "fat cats" pockets.

    greed.

    people would rather have SUV's, drive to dates, have ipods, sit in front of TVs, you name it, anything but taking care of their fellow man.

    then they wonder why G_D is raising the oceans, burning up the woods and drying up the lakes. Payment time now for not being a caring species.
