5. Reminds me of when Eva Peron sent a ship load of goods to
New York, mostly clothing and toys for children and goods like that. I think she did it to show that America had it's poor too. They let the goods be unloaded and distributed. No one turned anything down. There were a lot of poor people in New York who walked away happy and many redfaced politicians who said Americans wouldn't take charity.

6. Hey, I'll Take It
I certainly can't get anything from Bush. He is taking everything away.
