its just sad that the richest place in the world more wasnt done to help there own.......
Well it was not just in Thailand and if you've ever been to Thailand they are pretty organized like here, they have weapons like here.

I agree with your point though that it is sad the richest (and largest debtor nation BTW) cannot help its own in a time of need and that people in power have the luxury of squabbling over blame while people who elected them to look over the populace are dying or in peril.
