i'm not bashing our government, i support our president 100%. i dont want this to turn into another US-bashing thread, but we have our own problems that need to be addressed before we can help out the rest of the world.

at some point though, yes it would be good for asia to have a tsunami warning system, but what good would it do? where are the people gonna go?

the thinking man's only relief is insanity... escape to insanity
