This is a fucking retarded essay.

I've felt similar things about the ability of foreign donations to actually improve conditions (since its been such an uphill struggle with effective aid in the past). HOWEVER, there is rather blatant ignorance of WHY ordinary Haitians were in the poverty-stricken situation they are in. Yes its a bad idea to build in floodplains, quake-zones, etc but when you're a species that gravitates towards living on coasts, that is kind of unavoidable.

This is not truth, its an opinion that is ignoring some of the basic facts of the situation.
