Opinion - The U.S., The World, and Hurricane Katrina
Dude, it’s been over a year since Katrina… what the fuck?
I’ll tell you “what the fuck.”
International Aid is “what the fuck.”
The U.S. took Internation Aid after hurricane Katrina, and I’m just now remembering it. Seriously. We got money from other countries for Hurricane Katrina. Where did it go? Beats me; probably into someone’s pocket. However, it’s the galling fact that we took the aid which eats me up.
A list of countries that helped can be found at intlcenter.tamu.edu.
Now, you can see that (the) Maldives — yes, (the) MALDIVES — gave us $25,000 dollars. Fuck me in a cross-wind. C’mon, that’s like your neice coming up to you and saying, “I know you’re having a tough time, even though you’re the riches’ person I know, so here’s part of my allowance. I hope it helps you. Love ya, Unka Sam!”
Something like that would leave you shamed, feeling like a pile of steaming social dogshit. You would consider yourself useless, and others who knew about it would look down on you for it. Rightly so.
It’s infuriating and embarrassing that the United States, the richest country on the whole friggin’ planet, took some other country’s allowance money.
The fact that we took ANY money is unacceptable, but to take $25,000 from (the) Maldives… Fuck. Just hang your head in shame.
