these people must’ve been getting something from someone or they wouldn’t be clumping up huddled together in fecal infested hell holes. If their government never provided them with basic necessities, then this situation shouldn’t be a problem for them. IT’s been a year now and still all we hear is how horrible it is. If they don’t get going soon they are gonna have another event before they even recover from this one.

You don’t get the situation in Haiti. This is a country with nothing, no infrastructure, no resources, no raw materials, nothing, nada, zip. Before the quake there was nothing. Now there is less.
These are the most industrious people I have ever met and I have spent some years in Haiti. They slave 14-16 hrs a day for food and shelter, doing whatever they can imagine.
We live in the most comfortable country in the world. Imagine no food, persistent sickness, no shelter, rags for clothing, no transportation, no clean water, and fat grumpy Americans telling you to get off your dead a##.
Now chill out and pay attention.
