Thoughts on Haiti

Many of us have had our thoughts on Haiti now since the earthquakes. What is more puzzling is why havent we had our thoughts on this country before. You can look at the list of rulers and most were overthrown, killed, or suicides. The government is struggling. Their age expectancy for new borns is 52 years old, HIV contraction rates are high, disease is high, they have a negative national product. People have to wait in line once a week for their share of rice which consist of half a bowl of rice per person a day. Now buildings and infrastructure are destroyed and in ruins. They are anticipating 200,000 dead!

All this being said I was flipping through the luxuary of my tv and saw a debate on Fox News between the anchor and a guest who is unknown to me. The guest was saying we shouldnt take anymore Haitians in because they are a drain on the economy. They costs us in healthcare, taxes, insurance then they get pregnant and we have legalized babies and moms which drain the economy. I cant help but think this man is down right selfish! I then read this article today in which the President of the country of Senegal said he would give free land tho those who want to return to African or return to their roots as he put it. With so many giving it is a stark comparison with this guest on Fox News. Our country was made great on the backs of immigrants. Their hard work, intelligence brought us to where we are today. Even our very own White House was built by them!

This being said I felt there was something I could do. I was connected with an old friend who is helping raise money for friends who are connected with an orphanage there in Haiti. It is run by a branch president of our church. They had 24 kids under the age of 10 before the quakes and now they have 84. I have created this website to raise money for them! It also gives information on how to send non monetary donations as well. http://handshelpinghaitians.blogspot.com.
