Default Re: The Make a Wish Foundation

Hey moran, the people who give their money to Make-A-Wish understand how it will be used. Why shouldn't a kid dying of cancer get a trip to Disney World? His parents have most likely spent much of their life savings paying for the child's medical care and probably can't afford a trip to Disney World.

I have a lot of admiration for athletes and famous people who volunteer to spend a day with these kids (and I mean a full day, not a 15 minute meet and greet.) It has to be quite humbling to realize that in this kid's world you are one of the main sources of hope for this kid as he/she lives a short, tough life.

For your next foolish rant, I suggest you discuss the merit of euthanizing all the poor as the easiest way to eliminate poverty.
