9. I don't know
but I think massive humanitarian disasters and crises such as this one require immediate action and aid.

Yes we are in debt, but it does not matter. We must do what is morally necessary. If we have enough money to keep spending on a disaster in Iraq, then we sure as hell have enough to help the victims of natural disasters.

Of course, realistically speaking we HAVE money for neither, but I'd say if we're going in debt, we may as well do it doing the right goddamn thing.
