Haiti is sitting on one of the biggest untouched oil reserves in the world. If anything the earthquake has proven this, as oil is being found everywhere. In 2008 Metrople Haiti.com reported that Haiti could have larger oil reserves than even Venezuela.

Since when is the US interested in drilling for oil?
The people of Haiti should be so lucky.
We have a winner.
Send that guy a full 1 ton load of aluminum foil ~ that way he can do his entire house!
If the USA were truly serious about oil, they'd be drilling rahm emanuel's greasy head.
This... made me laugh.
Good work!
NO WAR FOR OIL
NO WAR FOR OIL
HAARP
Oil? We don't neeeeed no stinkin' oil!
It's wind and solar power baby! (as long as tree hugging supporters call the shots via governmental elective in Washington)
We don’t need their oil, we stole all of Iran’s remember?
The flaw in this, at least to me, is that the US is sitting on extremely large reserves of oil (and coal). If we were so interested producing oil, our worthless government would allow it to take place here.
I see two reasons we’d be covering Haiti for the oil
1- We don’t want the Cubans, Chinese or Chavezes getting control of it and wielding it as a weapon.
2 - As we all know, it’s OK to drill anywhere but the US. Apparently oil is clean if it comes from somewhere else.
IOW, our government doesn’t care about more energy, which is good for the world, and us.
I’m not convinced the dimwits running this country have enough reasoning ability to come up with 1 or 2. We’re in Haiti because it feels good. And if it happens to benefit the people there, well, they guess that’s OK, too.
Yea - we’re gonna do the same thing with the Haitian oil as we did with the Iraqi oil.
The man is insane, especially when there are over 500 billion barrels sitting in N. Dakota untapped.
Says here the oil reserves for Haiti = 0
