I know that this class is over, but I saw this news story and just felt compelled to share it (if anyone is still reading this blog).
Although this doesn't come as a surprise to any of us, this is a news story about the amount of aid that the US was offered post-Hurricane Katrina, and how much of it was declined or not collected. I was really struck by the statement that the US declined 54 out of 77 recorded offers of assistance from its 3 closest allies-Britain, Canada and Israel.
US used tiny part of aid sent after hurricane Katrina.
