So we can help each other in times like these. There is only so much that neighbors and family can do in tragedies like this. That is why we choose to work together as one people, not every man, woman, and child for himself.
Our hearts are heavy for these poor folks that have lost so much and for those children they are still trying to pull out of the damaged debris. It is heart-wrenching.
Government is not bad. Government can help to alleviate the pain and suffering. We should all pull together.
