I also should point out that the big cities in the USA would look a lot like this after a disaster or breakdown of order. It's not like I'm going out on a limb here -- remember the L.A. riots, and Katrina?

The problem is, this kind of thing happens without an earthquake. The US alone has spent billions and billions of dollars and the UN even more money on trying to fix that country. They have no government, what government they have is corrupt. This is why giving aid to corrupt countries doesn't work. The criminal thugs steal the aid and the people that need it go without.

Haiti is one of those countries where if you want to help the people you have to go in with soldiers and practically take over the country. It's not a place like Iraq where the people are civilized, so I dont object to sending soldiers. But occupied or not, Haiti isnt going to get anywhere because the people there are voodoo practicing savages. All we will be able to do for them is go in there and give them enough supplies to barely survive and keep escape with our lives... it's probably going to be another somalia with less guns... I think. If there is ever going to be any change in Haiti, it's going to be with Catholic soldiers armed to the teeth and accompanied by EXORCISTS in order to establish some Missions, which is the only real way to lift up a 3rd world country entrenched in paganism. Im serious. America has nothing to offer them but bread.
