express righteoous indignation that you did not do even more, and then
spit in your face as my "Thank You" to you.

After all, that is what YOU, the world, have been doing to us. Or at
least seem to expect.

Amen!

But, Bob, _WE_ are the rich folks that're supposed to give everything
to those who haven't tried to earn their own. Have you no compassion? If
US gives a million, it should've been 10 million: If US gives 10
million, why wasn't it a billion? Huh? Huh?

Do anything, it's not enough: Do nothing, it's just like those ugly,
filthy, trailer-trash, Merkins to let "the world" starve, suffer, and
bleed. Do something right and we're uppity: Nake a mistake and we're
uncaring.

Maybe isolationism wasn't such a bad idea after all.
