You didn\'t "cause 9/11", people with your mindset help others hate us more. As a result, more attacks, more deaths and more hate.

And you\'re "The US should rule everything" BS would hopefully never happen. I don\'t think you would be ready for the responsibilies your plan has. It would require the US government and it\'s people to give up alot more and be way more thoughtful about what other nations think. It would be pretty hard when you want the US to rule the planet, yet you have the mindset of an isolist who only wishes the better for himself. That is no way to live in this planet.


Unless, you want the US to rule everything and anyone by invading and putting our troops as bait.

With the deficit we have now and the dollar struggling. If the world economy collapses, the US economy wouldn\'t be so far off.

This is a natural disaster. Politics (wars, terrorist acts etc.) have NOTHING to do with this, so leave it out of the discussion ! :mad:

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but saying all those ppl do not deserve your help is just inhumane. Here in the Netherlands, ppl are donating lotsa Euro\'s for the good cause and so did I.

To the ppl who are not helping or thinking Asia deserves no help : Go and help yourself !

Seriously, Mystiq the top 3/4 of that post has no business being in here.  Way, way way off topic.  This topic is about foreign aid (and whether the US should or should not give it) NOT North Korea.  You want to post about North Korea - make a new thread.

July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

I think the humanitarian aid thing has become an international pissing contest.

It\'s kind of lame, but I guess South East Asia is the winner, so that\'s good for them.

^^^

Exactly.

More FAFSA money damn it!

Shit. All of the three colleges I was accepted into are above 30K per year. The other colleges(Texas Tech, Texas A&M and UT) are half of that.

Who cares?

All of the guys making the stupid decisions are put out the bait(our soldiers) already have their kids in Ivy Leagues!

I hate my parents. They didn\'t work hard enough!!!!
(^^Sarcasm. They worked their ass off)


Back on topic.

Giga. Do you truly belive that your view on the Tsunami and the "**** them, It\'s all about us" mentality is truly the "American way" you want to show the world?

Holy crap. QUIT YOUR BITCHING!

Just because I\'m a minority doesn\'t even come CLOSE to a guarantee that I will be able to pay for even half of college.

How many scholarships are outhere for "minority only" that would even come close to paying for that kind of tuition. NONE. I\'ve only come across 1,000 and the max was around 10,000 for "minority only". Or in my case "hispanic only"

I\'ve become sick and tired of the endless, disgruntled and useless bitching that comes from people like you.

"Well you\'re hispanic. That\'s why you got into ND. "

WTF?!

No, I worked my ASS off for those AP credits and I busted my head with 13+ AP classes. That\'s how I got in.


Damn Bozco. Do you honestly believe that because I\'m Hispanic college is some how more available to me? Why? What do I have that you don\'t? A darker skin color? A label?

The REAL scholarships (President\'s scholar, Merit and private) are open TO ALL THAT HAVE ACHIEVED, PASSED AND PROVED TO BE READY FOR COLLEGE. Not just "minority"

So, I get a few scholarships. What\'s your point? That you should just give it up? That it\'s unfair and racist? We\'ll prove yourself.


Skin color is not the only way to pay for college.

You really should be a lot more thankful for being that different color.  Scholarships ARE available to all that have achieved the work needed but you best ****ing believe it\'s going to a minority that is equally qualified, or even less qualified.

The funny thing is the new quarter started for me this week so I was talking to some friends of mine, the friends being macedonian and african american.  Both of their classes are completely payed for while mine is not in the least but I did way better than both of them in school.  They both found it as big of a joke as me but atleast they are grateful.

Mystiq - you constantly bitch about the "white man" and constantly bring up your race in your posts.  It is quite hard to overlook your race related whining.  The sooner you resolve your racist issues, the happier and more successful you will be.
