Yes I've always hated "Charity begins at home". It doesn't. It's not charity. It's self interest and necessity. Charity is doing something for someone else and not getting anything in return - not even a better image or a glowing feeling of "being nice".
Oh I agree, but charity is not something that should be forced upon others. If they don't want to give that is ok.
Therefore..
If people object to "us" giving money to India when people are starving at home then it is a perfectly valid complaint.
(I think if the India money was stopped there is not a cats chance in hell of it doing good here instead so it makes no difference)
No one is "starving" at home, honey!
THEY ALL GET CASH !
Some choose to spend it on booze (or a new Samsung mobile) rather than buy food, honey!
Its a matter of choice.
I expect being stuck in Bakewell you have no knowledge of what happens elsewhere to the working classes.... 
I do wish that ITK listens to Pattaya more and I'm sure he could teach Mrs ITK a thing or two. |
