I've been to Camden and Chester. (repoe'd many cars in both places). Then there's North and West Philly....
Shanty towns, American style.
PS: I think you (you being Dottore) are one sorry fk for thinking that sending money and aircraft carriers for a few weeks after a disaster- all so that a horrendous status quo can be maintained- is actually help at all. If we wanted to help these folks we'd take about half of them and dump them off in some deserted corner of some US state. But no way in hell anyone will support that.
PSS: Didn't you say the US should always mind it's business?

I am not the accepting of help sort. I have never applied for any gov't program, though i am sure i would qualify for some of them. I've never used my VA benefits for anything, even though i "earned" them.
In this life, i will stand or fall on my own, by my own merit. I don't want help from anyone.
