Yeah I saw that too. I don't think it is a government thing yet, just asking for private donations I think.

I agree. We have a lot of poor American kids. And a lot of them starving..

America first! We have taken care of the world to long.

I like the idea but I'm currently unemployed. Could you imagine if every person on the planet had access to all the information we did?
