Unwanted Help

What is wrong with people? Thousands of people are hungry and homeless, but the government is not allowing rescue workers to come into Myanmar. How dumb is that? There are so many people with way more resources and knowledge about helping people after a natural disaster than the country itself. But no, they won’t let people in to help. These people are willing to help. These people have been through things like this before and have the experience. They know the best way to help and they have the man-power to do it. But because of stupid politics, they aren’t allowed to help. Not only that, the officials in Myanmar are keeping all the good food and supplies for themselves, while leaving the people who truly need it with nothing. We’re talking about people here. People! People’s lives. They would rather have people die than deal with the fact that they are letting their “enemy” help? Who cares about politics? What about people’s lives? These are people, the same as you, when it comes down to it, we’re all the same. The same. What if it was you? Different story right? “But it’s not.” That’s baloney. So dumb.
