Also, no one faults anyone if they cannot make a donation. Donations are personal things Interestingly, taxation in America is a huge way of making donations to the poor and, sadly, others like large corporations, but that is a whole other topic

PS. don't get me started on why you have to drive to Mexico to get you medication for less money

no sweetie i was talking about the homeless people discussion from many pages ago. i've already donated to red cross for the hurricane (they even gave me a cool visor that says "save the south" )
