<p>I hate free rice. Think about it, all that rice that they give away amounts to what? Few thousand dollars? Which is fine and great. Except you have multi-million dollar companies, whose combined worth would be over a billion dollars, sponsoring this campaign. You're telling me a billion dollars buys the third world a few handfuls of rice? If I made $100,000 a year I would assure you I would donate at least 10,000 of that to charity. So what freerice.com equates to is free publicity for companies who are giving away negligible amounts of money for publicity that is worth than the rice. I get the 'at least it's something' argument, but these companies are cheating people by playing on human kindness.</p>
<p>GlueEater: Yes I will go with the "at least it's something" argument, because it really is :\ Of course I am not saying there are more efficient ways of doing so, which then I do agree with you. IMO, it's still a nice way for a large amount of people, to help donate who normally would not.</p>
<p>Your AP Econ teacher can't be as bad as ours :x
dyslectic, and when referring to a decrease in real interest rate says: "more minuser" <.<. Also says 1,000 billion, not trillion lol</p>
<p>HAY!
What a coincidence!
I'm slaving over Econ AP right now. :D</p>
<p>Hello everybody!
I just joined the UCD 2012 facebook group.
I've been hella (hella!) slacking off on my homework to read DavisWiki all day. hahaha.</p>
<p>Hahahahhaa Daviswiki? How do you look at random articles? I can only see the articles that are linked in the first "home page" for the daviswiki</p>
<p>@hsju Are you talking about Facebook? I think ur susposted to join the UCD '12 network, not the UCD network? I donno, I didn't send in my SIR yet. If that fails, just get a pen and write the '12 on your monitor. :P</p>
