Default 110%medicare reimbursement costs 4 haiti evacuees

http://blogs.wsj.com/health/2010/02/02/fed...haiti-evacuees/

what do you guys think about this? i have a sympathetic heart for a tragedy that happened there but this a little out of control. we have a financially burdened health system and economy as it is....but we keep dumping money into their catastrophe. what about the tax paying people in our country that could use that aid?

how many other countries are offering aid? ( I'm asking...i don't know ).

Maybe we shouldn't help at all.


We don't want to "impose our American ways on other cultures" right?

Everyone loves to complain and hate on America, I bet you we've donated FAR more than anyone else even per capita.

The world forgets our favors so quickly. Even so I'm fine w/ helping these people via donations.

NOT FINE WITH HELPING THEM UNLESS I CHOOSE TO. HAVING THEM SUPPORTED UNDER OUR HEALTH CARE OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT IS INSANE. That would be FORCING someone to donate essentially and that's plain ridiculous.

People love America when they need to depend on us and on low times BUT once they are back up on their feet they want us to GTFO...

^ Yep.

I'm growing tired of double standards.

I'm tired of paying more for insurance as a male but watching females cry about equal rights.

That's just one of the OH so many. I don't have any "white rights" group to go fight for my rights, it seems nobody cares about them. Frustrating.

If there was a "White Rights" group you would probably be labeled as a racist for joining.

What happens when white people become the minority?
