However, I find it totally disgusting how many do-gooders have jumped up and taken the opportunity to decry the awful condition of the country after the quake for the simple sake of getting their photos on TV, or in the news to convince someone how much they really care. Our esteemed president said we will not abandon them! BS! The governments that are rushing to help did that many decades ago!
Where the hell were all these "we must save as many as we can" way back when? According to info passed along by the overly concerned news media, 80% of the people live on less than $2 a day! 80% do not know how to read or write! 80% have no access to clean water! And this was before the quake! And you people who are so concerned with saving their lives, I ask, why bother? So they can go back to starving to death, dying from the dysentery they catch because there is no fresh water? Suffering from malnutrition because they cannot afford proper food?
So, run around and do what you think will help them survive, and then, when the story of their plight is no longer newsworthy, and the photographers leave the area, fade back into your previous life and wait for the next opportunity "to rise up and save someone", while the people in Haiti go back to dying the way they were before the quake.
