As many of you know, America is the first country to send Aid when other countries are in trouble.

It is highly appropriate that we now send THANKS to all of the countries that reciprocated for our help with their disasters, misgivings, social turmoil, & poverty by sending to the United States of America monetary and physical help when Sandy ravaged our East Coast leaving dead, homelessness, and pure disaster.

Listed below are all the Countries and World Organizations that are giving us gracious assistance. Please assist in thanking these entities by passing this on so people all over America can join in and THANK our neighbors, to whom we have invested BILLIONS!!!!

First on the list is.....


1.______________


Maybe now Americans will realize that charity begins at home. With millions of our people in need and in poverty, let's save our money and spend it at home instead of sending it to Egypt, Libya, Pakistan, etc........Staten Island and parts of New Jersey would gladly thank America if we spent the billions there.....

I did send a nice email to the folks at Pike Electric in NC for sending their crews here to help out. :seasix:

Be my guest, I'm right up there with the best of the "Copy, Paste, and Post" crowd. :D

'Course, NJ doesn't threaten the world with thermo-nuclear-tipped missiles... like, oh, say, Pakistan.

I thought that contractors from Canada came down to help. From Ontario, if I'm not mistaken. It's not a straight-up monetary contribution, but I think the help from our Canadian neighbors was probably appreciated. :cheers:

Toronto Hydro sent people as well as Hydro crews from the maritime provinces.
We also had Red Cross and the people from Ontario waste and water management if I recall.
I'm sure Norm wasn't including us in his copy and paste. :seasix:

Just to be fair to all sides, I believe Israel sent a token amount of aid, and Iran (via the Red Crescent Society, their version of the Red Cross) offered aid, but since we have no official diplomatic contact with them, our govt. either pretended that the offer was never tendered or just refused it.

Ive said for years now, we need to stop giving out handouts to all other nations, sink or swim...before they drag us down with them.
