Well watch some of the videos of the earthquake on You Tube. There sure are an awful lot of fat Haitians. I think during the Katrina coverage, the obese outnumbered the slim 10-1. That’s why the evacuation took so long, they could only get a couple in each small boat because they were so enormous.
Much of the problem is Aristide refused to spend the millions sent to him to build the infrastructure the nations needed. So they have nothing, no bull dozers etc. to move the buildings etc. off the roads to clear for the large trucks etc. to go in. The Haitians are few if at all who have vehicles of any kind, not even bikes.
Additionally I heard last night some of the Dr.s and nurses were ordered, by the UN, to leave the medical tents in one area because the poeple in some areas were rioting.
Does seem the Haitian people hurt themselves before and even while people are trying to help. Repeating the same behaviour as before. Their Presidents never cared to make Haiti anything other than a money flow into their own personal coffers. I blame their current and prior Gov. entirely for what we see playing out here.
