As for Limbaugh saying they are in that situation due to their communist government. I didn't think Haiti was communist but more of a monarchy (still a shitty form of government). Anyways has this earthquake affected their neighbor who shares the same island? The Dominican Republic is on the same island, has the same people, but a different government (and they didn't make a deal with the devil). Sucks for the people, but they'll manage. Especially since private donations alone from Americans will probably be double of their GDP. Then add in the rest of the world and our government, they'll come out great. That's one hell of a deal from the devil.

After they got out from under those thumbs and eventually had their first democratic elections, they ended up with incredibly corrupt leadership (google "Jean-Bertrand Aristide"). Prior to the earthquake in Haiti they had an unemployment rate of 90% and a literacy rate of less than 50%. Four out of 5 Haitians who receive higher education leave the country. Odds are that a good chunk of the money that is sent down there, that isn't managed by aid agencies, will simply disappear. They won't "manage." There is nothing to "manage" left. Their buildings were generally made of concrete with no rebar because there is virtually no wood left in Haiti, and rebar it too expensive. When the earthquake hit and the concrete fractured, there was nothing to keep them from simply falling apart. There are no resources. There's nowhere to obtain employment, even if everything is rebuilt. They were the poorest people in our hemisphere, even before this.
