Re: Are Americans Stingy?
I believe that many Americans (and many others) are very generous, many more are not. I do however think that since our American government is perfectly willing to take our tax money and send it to whomever and wherever, that many Americans who would otherwise be more generous feel the gov't did it for them, and therefore don't help out. In the case of the recent troubles with the Tsunami, I am glad some help can be offered, in the many many cases of food sitting in ports to rot, and worse, I think individuals would do a better job of helping out.
