[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You could have done better for those families by sending money to employ local laborers to build the houses. Then, not only would some folks have houses, but other folks would have jobs. These trips badly distort local economies by putting local builders out of work, and allow the cost of supplies to be unreasonably increased. Sure, it might work for the 3 families who get a new house, but it's overall very bad for the community. [/quote] Exactly. Take the money you spent on plane tickets and donate it instead. Go pull trash out of the Anacostia River if you want to make a difference in the world. http://www.anacostiaws.org/programs/stewardship/cleanups [/quote]
