This Reuters article asks "will endemic corruption suck away aid to Haiti?"
Duh.
In the article a Haitian said "The U.S. government needs to come here to help the Haitian people."
Um, I thought we already were. I mean, we've sent gajillions of plastic water bottles over to them. Commenter SwampRabbit astutely observed those very bottles will likely be cobbled together to ferry much of their populace to our shores.
At least they'll be recycling.

What they meant was the U.S. Government needs to fix everything and give them billions of dollars on top of that then go away so they can hate us again.
Why would we want to clean Haiti's septic system when we still need to clean the one in Washington DC?
From the news reports, I gather that Hatians never lack for machetes. The machete manufacturing/maintenance sector of their economy seems to work pretty well.
Um... is the Pope a Catholic???
I received a huge dose of hate and anger when I made a Facebook post centered around irritation at all the telethons for Haiti when nobody does anything that useful for people who need help in our own country.
Where's the telethon for Granny who has to chose between heat, food, and necessary medication? One gal actually said I was heartless. Personally, I think she's blind.
