Leaving aside that USAID was hugely important to US soft power and the hopefully universal goal of preventing Ebola outbreaks, other people being shitty isn't an excuse to be shitty ourselves.
- sejje 1y agoSo giving them billions of dollars was shitty? Helping these folks should be something we want to do as humans, not as part of our political cycle, or something our government forces us to do, IMO. Has any critical commenter here contributed funds to this new ebola outbreak? Or do you just want to mandate that other people donate?
- AlotOfReading 1y agoThanks for asking. My non-tax medical aid dollars go to Project C.U.R.E. They haven't responded to this specific event yet because international ocean shipping isn't well suited to first response situations, but they'll eventually have supplies to help. How do you choose to help? [0] https://projectcure.org/ https://projectcure.org/
