I applaud Japan,,,the spirit of giving is very much in their heart.

Still waiting for the Us, EU, UK, Canada,,,to do something re Chile and funds...
so sad...USA is there to get the blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries so we can pay 2 dollars a pint for them all year round,,,and keep people in poverty with the terribly low prices....(think about it a pint of blueberries for 2 dollars, that have been picked, put in little plastic container and flown to the usa, then dropped off at a store..so i can buy them.....what are they paying the growers and pickers?)

...
I think about this every time I buy blueberries. And I do buy them. It blows my mind to think of the international economy we United Statziens are integral in creating juxtaposed with the position on undocumented workers so many people have in this country. Hello? Who would not rather be at home with their spouse and children if they could be?
Am I derailing?
