This is awesome, but....

CNN lists contributions that big greedy companies are making toward the hurricane relief effort:

This is awesome, but why is it only during times of disaster that such big contributions are made? What about those people who are homeless all of the time, who are in need of medical care now and will continue to be after New Orleans is re-inhabited, and who dig through trash dumpsters to find food?

I wonder how long the "regular" urban refugees could have been fed in this country with the same level of donations given to clean up Katrina...
