In the aftermath of last weeks earthquake in Haiti, the US government has sent Naval, Marine and Coast Guard personnel to that nation to assist in the rescue effort. Addionally, numerous Federal agencies have coordinated to send other forms of aid including rescue dogs, medicine and equipment. Further, more than ten million American tax dollars in recovery and rebuilding money is being sent to Haiti to help with the process.
Almost everyone would agree that private charities properly assist in these types of disasters. But how do all of you feel about have our Federal Government involved and spending our tax dollars in this manner?
