@Mojave4ever -- I think you have an imperfect understanding of the term "wealth."

[Mojave4ever]

Well, first of all Chile has extreme beauty....a place anyone would love to visit...so it forever has the tourism industry (i.e., can't be outsourced to China). Second, the US has trillions in dept, Chile does not.

How are we going to be wealthier than the US???? I don't even know if all of South America together could be.

[Mojave4ever]

This is really amazing and terrible for Chile.  But, I am confused as to why Obama would extend assistance to a country that is far wealthier than the US????

I am from Chile and yeah, we're always preparated for Earthquakes and stuff like that.

Funny thing is that Earthquakes are mainly in the 1st and 2nd region of Chile ( I live in the 1st one ) but this one went from the 3rd region to the 10th region ( There are 13 regions in Chile by the way ) So yeah this one didn't even affect me :p
