Ironic

August 6, 1945, we dropped a bomb on Japan that killed many thousands of people. Then we dropped another bomb that killed even more. Then we helped them re-build their country.

I am not sure, but from the way it looks, we now owe them a lot of money, we purchase their cars and their products and electronic items, while we have lost thousands of jobs to them, their economy prospered, and our debt has grown. Many of the billionaires in the world, live in Japan.

Now a tragedy, of that there is no doubt, horrendous, and again we are sending them aid, and probably going to end up rebuilding their country again.

We still don't have many jobs, we purchase their products, we have homeless, hungry citizens who are losing their homes. homeless families who will go to bed hungry tonight, and soon, we will start rebuilding their country again.

How much have we spent on Haiti and all the other disasters that have occurred, how much will we spend on this disaster, while little to nothing is done to relieve our problems in this country?

We can no longer worship God in many ways, we can not mention HIS name on our money, on on our buildings, yet we are "our brothers keeper."

How many countries have ever come to our aid when we have had disasters?
