    Don’t shoot me but…. would the government not be better providing; “food, clothes and other essentials in the recovery process” instead of handing out cash? Economies of Scale, Government buying etc etc,

    Fair play. I’ve responded to flooding in the not so far past and seeing the devastation flooding causes, I can definitly say every bit will help these victims.

    Tight fisted insurance companies will blame “god” to save a buck while these people suffer. well done the red cross.
