You can't spell GARBAGE without AR.

Ok, i'll take a better aproach.
500,000 affected in Haiti right now, about .0083% of the human population
6,000,500,000 people affected by (for instance) Global Warming (100%)
so I'm not saying the Haitian effort is a bad thing, I'm saying the money could be put towards more important causes that will save far more people. It's all about perspective.
And side note, this is a forum in a community and if you say I shouldn't voice my opinions and concerns, then you're just as bad as me
It's called helping.....
You'd be pretty PO'd if you were one of them, having you or your family starving, dying, and in need of medical aid and then you realize someone on the internet is saying that the aid isn't really necessary and that the efforts should be put towards something else.
BTW, you should voice your opinion, but at least do so with an ounce of empathy, but also a little bit of reasoning would be nice.
If you don't want to support the relief effort, then fine, but please don't stop others from doing so.
