once again you are wrong, as a nation we give the most... our government doesn't give the most is the words that for some reason you seem unable to write

ok think of it this way..... i give 50$ to the disaster, and a millionaire gives 50$, who is more generous ?

lol thank you.. its really not all that complicated. I don't even care who gives more and who gives less. I'm just pointing out the truth, and your embarassing youself by spending 2 days now refusing to accept the obvious.
If you seriously want to argue that a millionaire donating 60 dollars is more generous than a poor person donating 50 because the millionaire donated the higher amount, than by all means go ahead, you'll just verify your own stupidity. In case you haven't realized that is essentially what you've argued this whole time.

if you don't care, why do you point it out? ???

ok moron, these are governments and millions of people you're talking about....there's no "poor people giving $50" in this equation all the governments on that list are able to give that money.....you don't see rwanda anywear near the top... in fact you don't see any 3rd world countries near the top of ANY aid list.....
as for the people part....i don't see how you're able to pick out poor people giving $50 out of a estimated number comprised of millions of people
so where this imaginary poor person that's giving all his/her money is ficticious and you're an idiot for backing your arguement up with fake characters...
if i were as dumb as you i'd say the north pole gives the most money because Santa doesn't make a dime, he just gets paid in cookies and milk, yet he delivers billions of presents a year and does thousands of hours of charity work in malls across the world
it all boils down to, the US give 75% of all donated money and we don't make up 75% of the world

again its no competition, but i think its a good thing that Australia did donate so much because it sets a benchmark, it would make other countries think maybe give a lil more... its no competition but it could state that even tho most countries are being very generous, they could be more generous... John Howard made me proud, and i dont mind if i have to pay extra taxes when i get home...
