Apparently world rice prices are going to spike, could get to ten bucks a pound in America. I say we quit eating rice and ship it to these people. Real men eat beef and potates anyway.

Pentagon not warm to idea of Myanmar aid drop - Yahoo! News
WASHINGTON - Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Thursday the U.S. military was moving forward with plans to mount a relief mission in Myanmar, but he said he couldn't imagine air dropping aid without permission from the Asian nation's government.

they have a bunch of c-130's full of aid ready to go and the junta says we cant enter there airspace.

the number of deaths are already staggering, i cant even imagine the final numbers that the junta will end up contributing to
