Yup, let's spend all of our resources to help and leave the US vulnerable to attack.
No no, everyone will really appreciate it and nobody would want to attack us anymore :disgust:

How is giving aid and donations going to make the US vulnerable to an attack?

guess what will happen to your cushy ass right above us if we were to get attacked because we gave every last penny of ours away like you'd have it?

Heh...nope that i am not.
probably a good thing for you...as you don't seem to want to increase funding...
I'd probably bring it up to less than half of the spending per person that the other 1st world countries are doing.
But i must be more compassionate than the people here.

Stunt, your figure of 6.8 per capita is in Canadian dollars and includes 30-40 million in the form of a debt moratorium.

Why do you wish to include a suspension in payment of debt in Canada's contribution yet choose to ignore the non cash contributions from the US?

From the page you linked:

The United States has dispatched two C-5 Galaxy strategic airlifters and ten C-130 Hercules tactical airlifters containing disaster supplies, nine P-3C Orion aircraft for search and rescue support, and several teams from the Departments of State and Defense to coordinate additional assistance. They are using Utapao Naval Air Base in Thailand as their regional hub. Additionally, the United States has offered assistance from its troops stationed in Japan. USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier battle group, which was in port in Hong Kong, was dispatched to the coast of Sumatra to provide support to the Indonesian province of Aceh. In addition, a amphibious battlegroup led by USS Bonhomme Richard, scheduled for a port call in Guam, were dispatched to render assistance. All these ships carry a total of 29 helicopters to assist in relief support, and each ship can produce 90,000 gallons of fresh water per day.

Does it not fit your agenda?

Suspension of debt is a cash contribution.
Also it is vague whether the military operations are included in the stated $350million allocated.

Neither of us know...but if you can find that out...that would help.

you are right, i would be envious of a country with the ability to lead and give significant aid to ones who despirately need it right now.
But in terms of lifestyle and opportunities...i'm quite happy right here...i dont see much more that the US could offer me. But who knows i may move to the US later in life. I have always liked the country. Very similar to mine

Canada is not declaring the debt paid but rather allowing them to skip a few payments until they get back on their feet, so to speak. While commendable it's not a direct cash contribution.

Considering all the other cash totals are itemized it seems quite clear to me the equipment and manpower sent to the region is not included in the cash totals for the US.

 

[FleshLight]

Why does everyone get into a pissing contest when it comes to Tsunami donations? They aren't really donations either, more like Bush taking $$ out of the General Tax Fund. But anyways, as a country, we aren't obligated to send aid, but we still do. Who cares if country X only donates $350m while Y donates $80m...

that's an easy guess

i'm not faulting the US. I'm just pointing out it is an excellent opportunity to show the world how you are leaders, arent just all about war. Can help those in need, and really make a difference.

You still havent mentioned how much you think the US should participate in the disaster.
