Thanks for the help, Mexico. Way more helpful than Bush was.
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
These damn Mexicans coming over the border and providing disaster relief! This is Carter’s/Clinton’s/Obama’s/Biden’s/Harris’s America!
Their takin’ ar jerbs!
Doing the jobs real Americans don’t want.
Sad, because I’d love to have a job in disaster relief

What country are you living it?
edit: Are you of age to work for or volunteer for the list of groups and organizations above?
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.
Dey derrka durr!
Cuba responded before anyone else did with food, aid supplies, and doctors, and were promptly turned away by the US.
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 link never knew that…and will say that is kind of fucked up…
Cuba has always been the first to respond to international emergencies with medical drs and aid. They have more doctors per capita than any other country in the world
You may not know this and thats ok but do you know how much they will pay a nurse to help people out in Cuba? As a traveling nurse am generally interested.
I have no idea
The day after Karina hit
Thank you for the link very unexpected. …no sarcasm…really do appreciate it wish you could link it in a post for everyone to read.
Call me naive, but I think, that’s what neighbors should do. Viva la humanity!
Honestly it’s the best use for a country’s military. Send .5% out to actually, idk, help people.
Wait till you learn the history of the national guard
(Spoiler: they were thugs hired by robber barrons used to murder striking workers)
And the Marines were the personal union busters of plantation owners in central America.
And Hawaii. Well, kingdom busters.
Well, if Hawaii didn’t want to get invaded, it shouldn’t have put itself in an ideal defensive location for the USA in the pacific, it’s their fault really
Huh. So they were sending their best.

Mexicanos al grito de guerra
El acero aprestad y el bridón
Y retiemble en sus centros la tierra
Al sonoro rugir de el cañón
W Bush wasn’t going to do anything, so someone had to
