Organize a nation wide.........

[STLantny]

I was thinking today, for all intents and purposes (huh, you learn something new everyday), no country has offered any aid, that I can find at least. Chavez has offered oil to poor people for "relief", but he made that offer before the hurricane, and is just hoping to look good now. Do you guys think there are many people that agree that we should be trying to help the world, when we receive little in return (this fact, just being amplified in the current situation). What kind of support, even extremism, do you think a nation-wide, suck it up, do the dirty work, boycott, of a major product, ie oil, foreign made goods, (something that WILL hurt us to lose in the short term), until we stop hemmoraging money to every other nation that cant fend for themselves?






PS if this is a politics thread, then Ill delete it, but I think this is more of a logistics question, rather than politics, because I would be interested in organizing some kind of effort.
