    Are you fucking kidding me?

    It's no surprise that the US spent money to rebuild the US.
    You'd spend more for lifesaving surgery for yourself than you would for a random stranger, wouldn't you?
    Part of being part of the US is knowing the other states will help in times of need.
    And who gives a shit about rate?
    Look at actual - the US GDP is enormous.
    A small percentage of a large number can be larger than a large percent of a small number.
    I assume a recepient of aid is concerned with magnitude, not percentage.

    Face it..all your arguments against FireFox have been bashed by evidence show by the people who have posted above.

    Meaning?

    It is also secure, because it is open source

    It may be free of malicious code, but to prove it, one must read and understand this code.

    Microsoft is a company that loves to make something and then charge everyone a lot of money for it and then not update it in the least and then flame another product for being better instead of actually doing something to fix the problem

    Windows Update.

    You proved that you dislike Microsoft.
    Big fucking deal.

    Maybe it took the moderator time to dig through the incomplete thoughts, mangled words, and general idiocy of your submission.
