I would love to see this same pouring of aid into Haiti after the country is rebuilt. We all know that Rascism is what kept Haiti from participating in the industrial revolution. Many people try to say that Haiti slept during the industrial revolution, but nothing is further from the truth. Haiti was completely ignored by major nations due to their independence from France. Only time will tell if nations have left Racsism in the past, or if they will continue to make major trade agreements with Mexico such as Nafta, while overlooking free black nations. But like other posters stated, this is an opportunity to rebuild Haiti with modern accomodations, and state of the art equipment. Nations should donate equipment to Haiti incase this happens again. As the saying goes, you can feed a man a fish, and he will be fed for one day, or you can teach him how to fish, and he will be fed for a lifetime. Also I think more African nations should reach out to Haiti when it comes to trade and commerce. We as African people can not wait for Latino, European, and middle eastern nations to keep lifting us up when we fall. We must deal among our own people to ensure our economic growth and productivity. I hope so for the children's sake.
