As India's kids starve, $1.5 billion worth of grain rots

[derspiess]

Why should you care less that children are starving because they were born in a different country?

Because starving Americans will have a higher likelihood of returning the favor after they're fed.

You donate to charity because you expect people to return the favor?

Hellz yeah.  Those crippled kids I give my spare change to might end up saving my life some day.

You donate to charity because it makes you feel good about yourself.  You contribute to a safety net as insurance against your own bad luck.

I'm showing this thread to my kid when he won't eat his green beans tonight.

Why?  To rub it in that at least Indians don't have to eat green beans?

I always wonder about the Indians that own & run the Subway downtown near my office.  Dunno if they're Hindu or Muslim, but either way they're violating their beliefs since they serve me both ham and roast beef.

You know, the folks that run one of the Subway's in my town are Indian or Pakistanis.  Always go there, best service of all the subways in town.  They are quick!  I'm guessing those countries are just exporting all their best people.  Every person I've ever met from South Asia (and there are a surprisingly large number of them), has been polite, competent, and intelligent.

And then there's Nikki Haley.

I'd impregnate her.

[Razgovory]

She's not bad looking.

Of course you would super sperm man.

Breeders rule.

[katmai]

Overbreeding doesn't.

Pfft. I need vassals.

I've known a lot of Indian Catholics (former co-worker of mine was of Goanese descent and had the surname 'Fernandez'), and there are a lot of active protestant missions there also.  That said, I don't Muslims take offense at others eating pork like traditional Hindus do at others eating beef.

I've never had a Muslim get up in my face while eating snossages.

I have, however, gotten a lecture at the 7-11 while buying whackoff mags.

As you should. You get much better value for your dollar online.

I got yelled at for looking at pornos once by an Onondaga woman at a convenience store on the reservation.

As you should.  It's not really the item that's appropriate to sample in the store.
