Well here's some incentive for Australians. If you donate, keep the receipt and have a tax file number, you can claim it back on your next tax return. You can absolve your guilt and keep your money!

that is not how taxes work.
I = your income
D = the amount you donate
R = tax rate
T = the taxes you pay
The equation for your taxes is:
(I-D)*R = T
not:
(I*R) - D = T
if you donate 10 bucks you will probably get something like 3 cents back. If you're income is low and you don't really pay taxes, you will save absolutely nothing.

Well I probably got that wrong but I'm pretty sure you can claim the exact amount you donated as a deduction so long as it's less than $5000 (I think). Either way, it's a small incentive to get us Aussies to donate. Australians are obsessed with doing their tax returns and will claim every cent possible.

I don't want to donate to idiots who riot about not having supplies when it's preventing them from receiving it. Plus I trust our governments more than the charitable organizations to get supplies to the people who need it in Haiti. I also don't have any disposable income.

right when it happened people where asking me "Have you heard about Hati?"
And my response is always "I don't care about anything that goes on in Hati unless over 100,000 people die"
The smart people laughed, the stupid people got mad and tried to inform me of the situation
But yeah im extremely insensitive so i don't really care, but i did find it rather amusing that Hati was already a shithole without these kinds of things happening every 3 or 4 years
and how little everyone cared when 100k hatians die, but everyone around the world goes apeshit when 3,500 americans die

it took a few days for people to really get what happened in hati but i had friends in foreign countries when 9/11 hit and we were talking about this and how the it dominated the news for several days, much more so than the hatian earthquake
but you bring up a good point, americans make themselves important

Well the news here in DK are still having around 2-3 updates on Haiti in the foreign news segment - I wouldn't know about the televised news of other countries I'm afraid.
I hope I'm not offending anyone for saying this, but 9/11 was, were it not for the tragedy of the situation, a news station owner's wet dream. Not only was the event an attack on American soil, which in itself is extraordinary (in the literal sense of the word), but it was also live. A LOT of people were watching the whole thing live - and not just in America, as you also pointed out. I remember watching it live from home as well. I'm sorry to say this but someone profited from 9/11 besides the delusional fanatics that launched the attack.

true a lot of people benefited from the 9/11 attacks, namely the president in terms of support (im not saying conspiracy but it did help his agenda) and all news companies benefited from drastically increased publicity and kept everyone's attention by saying whatever the fuck they found out about the terrorists whether it be true, probable, uncertain, improbable, or false
