OK, we know where to place you on he scale of empathy for others.

Empathy has nothing to do with fact.

Fact: The US Constitution does not authorize the federal govt to seize assets to relieve individual suffering. The Constitution makes no prohibition on state and local govts from taking action or from individuals giving freely on their own accord, however.

Americans have shown over and over again to be extremely generous in helping each other and those around the world following a disaster without needing their contributions coerced from them by force.
