that is helping.
Big difference between that and standing around, waving a bible in the air.
i agree. Up here there is constant preasure on the media to donate to the red cross. There is constant begging by hots to send money to arlington and darrington. He wants cash.
In an overwhelming catastrophy such as this hots should be thinking long term. He should take some of this money to the local murphy auction and buy some equipment like a couple of used excavators and loaders rather than rent or lease to some local construction company. These townships should be hiring machine operators and repair personell if only because we are looking at a cleanup lasting maybe more than a couple of years. The volume of the debris is huge and the going must be slow because there are bodies in amongst the mud and debris.
They need to hire a comptroller just to manage this just as if it were a huge construction project.
Throwing money around at this point is wastefull. There are no survivors left to save and the sooner they stop this nonsense about "rescue" the sooner those still missing loved ones will come to the realization their family members swept away are just that..gone.
the families are going to need financial help. They've lost everything. They will need help to live and eat while they grieve and most will need help to bury their loved ones.
