how people are reacting to this issue

This is Uncle Sam being lazy. He seems to think that the one person should got on it. Meaning he doesn’t want to help. Basically the USA is sitting out and watching this happen. I think that is bad cause why should they suffer when we could easily help them. Also Uncle Sam is what you would call the symbol of American pride. If he is lying down and just watching as the people are dying then that means the USA as a nation doesn’t care. If we can help we should help them as much as we can. They don’t have what we do and unlike us maybe don’t have computers. Why are we not helping? Say the one person is one nation, hypothetically. USA as one person is not helping but says a neighboring country is helping. That one person is changing the way that they are living even though it’s very slow and can be unprogressive at times because this genocide still continues. Maybe that is why we are not helping as much as we could. We might think that this is worthless and a waste of the money we make and spend every day. I want to know why we are not helping them. Another reason we are not helping could be that we might think this is unprogressive at times and not even worth what we want to do. We may think that Darfur isn’t important and we have other charities to give to so to speak. Would this limit our money and not be able to be as free we are now. Darfur is not important to us in a sense. It definitely should be important to us because Darfur affects us all in many ways. Lastly I think that George Bush has our army in Iraq so we maybe don’t have enough people to help the people in Darfur. We might need an army to help theses people. But if we don’t the USA needs to help and not be in isolation like our history says.
