You don't have to be a jackass about people dying though.
Who ever said I WAS being a jackass about people dying? I didn't even mention the people who died. My post didn't even include them, or comment on them, or make any kind of point about them. Un-natural death is always a tragedy, I'm not denying that at all.

My point was that apparantly a lot of people stand to gain a lot of money from this tsunami disaster, most visibly the media and its' connected companies. All the incorrect information and varying stories that I'm getting from various news sources is causing alarm bells to ring.

This whole event has, for me, been the final step in an ongoing processes that has gradually been confirming my suspicions of a media controlled world, where corporate giants, massive parent companies and conglomerates control society through the media. I originally dismissed this kind of paranoid conspiracy theory as total gibberish, the blathering of the mad, the deluded, and the overactive imagination. But I'm beginning to see now that it isn't any kind of conspiracy, it's merely business as usual. Contacting the global market through any available medium. It's all ad space these days, it's all a chance to increase profits.

The use of such disasters as a conduit for the control of market trends is a testiment to the unemotional nature of the enemy that humanity faces. It's just sickening that we can no longer rely on news sources for something as harmless as information on worldly events. Now there is no telling what is truth and what is lies. The reaction of the public to this disaster, has demonstrated a media triumph over us all.

Now, hundreds of millions of dollars will be poured into various donation funds, off of which I imagine many profits will be skimmed. The amount of money skimmed is controlled by the ability of the media to motivate people into donating.

I'm not saying don't donate, just choose very carefully who you donate to. Don't get all frenzied and give away money left, right and center. Choose registered charities ONLY.
