Supporting Japan's rebuilding process

[Grit]

i am pretty sure that japan will have enough money on their own to pay for their rebuilding.

This is Japan, not china. Having 17 trillion and still ask the -17 trillion country to donate money for rebuilding. Lucky, samurai isn't from China.

Japan is the real place for samurai. Think of their pride, they would have their ministry commit seppuku if they accept your money especially Americans who blew up half of their country a little more then half a century ago to rebuild.

Now if you donate directly to Red cross, that's another story since the money is use to keep red cross function not rebuilding.

The only valid point in this post is the last one.. we should be donating to disaster relief funds, not Square Enix. It's easy enough to donate to these charities.. to give 10 dollars all you have to do is text one of the numbers on this list:

Last I checked, Japan's national debt is 11 Trillion US dollars (900 trillion yen or so). They actually have the second highest debt vs. GDP in the entire world (about 195%). By comparison, the US debt is only 96.3% of our yearly GDP.

So to say that they can "afford" to rebuild is a rather uneducated statement to make.
