Pledging Other People's Money
RECEIVED Thu., Sept. 15, 2005
Dear Editor,
First let me say that I think it is wonderful to see people donate to all the different Katrina funds. But I wonder, maybe the poor folks should be "on" the telethons and the rich folk who make millions per movie picture or TV episode or own the very TV stations and major newspapers we are watching the Katrina struggle on should be calling in with their million-dollar pledges.
Nah ... it'll never work. But it would be nice.
