Call me naive, but I think, that’s what neighbors should do. Viva la humanity!

Cuba responded before anyone else did with food, aid supplies, and doctors, and were promptly turned away by the US.

Don_Dickle OP ,

Not calling you a liar or anything but can you source that? I love to go down rabbit holes and I think it would be an interesting read. Thank you in advance if you respond.

Thanks for the help, Mexico. Way more helpful than Bush was.

Don_Dickle OP ,

Did you know the drinking age in Louisana was 18 until Katrina hit? Then Bush and the government at large told them if you want assassitance raise you drinking age to 21.

That’s in order to receive federal highway money if I recall correctly. Probably desperately needed that money right after Katrina though so that checks out. Was still trivial to drink underage when I was there years and years ago

What country are you living it?

US I was denied financial aid for fall semester because my legal partner makes too much money.

Edit: Oh yeah I’m old. Kinda don’t know how useful I’d be to any of these organizations honestly.
