America is cheap!

Quick! this article will only be online for 7 days. Excerpt:

But the bottom line is that this month and every month, more people will die of malaria (165,000 or more) and AIDS (240,000) than died in the tsunamis, and almost as many will die because of diarrhea ( 140,000). And that's where we're stingy.

Yes, America is cheap and refuse to share its wealth. Problem is, about every rich nation is. Even the most generous only give about 1% of their GDP in official development assistance.
