Sure we have street people and struggling farmers, but I don't think their plight comes anywhere near that of the starving Ethiopians. So why don't we just help our fellow human beings, and ask their nationality later. By the way, how much have *you* given to the poor of our nation? Or do you believe paying your taxes relieves you of any further obligation. (And who says the US is all screwed up? Just be thankful Reagan won reelection. Had Mondale won, THEN we would have been screwed over!)
