Charities ripping off the 09/11 survivors...

Published reports say that the American Red Cross is keeping half the money donated to the victim's families, for internal use. The ARC says it is going into a savings account for future terrorist actions.

At the same time, the victims families are spending nearly four hours a day hunting down money, just so they can pay the bills.

Americans have donated 1.5 billion to the relief, and yet these people are receiving checks for just $2,400?

fucking well right the red cross should keep money as long as we're bombing their facilities.

I'm not saying that a bunch of money will make these people feel better. But, the family members who have bills to pay because the deceased was the lone bread winner, are having a hard time right now. They need to pay the bills.

If these people got all the money they deserved, it should be a few thousand. But, for the entire country to make these people wealthy would be ridiculous.
