I have often wondered that myself, and I still cannot find an appropriate answer. How can we be expected to help others when we can't even help ourselves?

I would say is this because in this country USA Homeless can find a way to make money like bottles, cans, beg for money, food, can get food stamp, stuff like that. but other country sure have a hard time to find food, no place to live??? middle of no where? some time there place in city there no bottle cans for them to find or job or anything? We American want to help others because show the good American we are. I know that they can't help us back because money they don't have to help. we all help other county.

REALLY GOOD QUESTION.
YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS THOUGH?
WE AS AMERICANS ARE BIAS AGAINST OUR OWN PEOPLE.
I THINK THAT AMERICANS THINK THAT A HOMELESS PERSON IN AMERICA IS BETTER OFF THAN A HOMELESS STARVING PERSON IN AFRICA OR CHINA.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT,IN A WAY THAT'S TRUE.
BEING HOMELESS IN THIS COUNTRY IS NO WHERE NEAR LIKE BEING HOMELESS IN THOSE COUNTRIES.
BUT I DO AGREE WITH YOU.
