3. That is a rather callous post.....

What if you had a family member onboard this flight? Would you be advocating pulling the plug on the investigation/search? The U.S. is engaged in this effort so arguably you may be paying $.02 for this work. But in the aggregate I think the world community is still committed to trying to find out what happened (to avoid this in future or protect against it) as well to provide answers to the family and friends of those lost souls.

I don't disagree that this is enormously expensive and most of the cost is being born by countries other than Malaysia and Malaysia Airlines.

But this is when humanity collectively pulls together, rallies resources and tries to solve a human challenge. More than 2/3 of those aboard were Chinese and China has played an important role from satellite surveillance to ships, etc.
