Is it racial? National? Religious? I think Jesus would say that everyone in the world is "our people," because everyone on the world is <em>his</em> people. Clarke-

We should focus more on helping our own people out of poverty. No one outside the U.S. is going to send money to our country to help our people. It is time we stop blaming ourselves for the plight of everyone else. It is time to take responsibility for our ownand let others focus on the rest of the world. Cut off our foreign aid to other countries and we will see a change in attitude from other nations. -Clarke Americans are very quick to send money oversees to help poor people.
