It's difficult because where do you start? In a devastated city where there are 100,000+ people stranded, who do you go to first? The sick and the elderly? The children? They're all over the city. People are so spread out, it's impossible to find and get to them all right away. And while you're rescuing those, you have to leave behind others who may be in just as dire straits and who may not be there when you get back. How do you choose between two people who are both straddling life and death and you can only take one?

The United States may be a powerful and wealthy country, but we still have our weaknesses. This is evidently one of them.
