Someone else read THIS from Yahoo news and tell me if this statement makes any sense..Haiti's government said it needs more money or tents if people are to be moved.
"We are going to have a big problem when the rainy season starts," said Interior Minister Paul Antoine Bien-Aime. "We don't have $60 million to buy 100,000 tents."

There's some evil shit going on in Haiti.

mmhmm no surprise there.
must buy 'em from the place the US military was buying $600+ toilet seats from years ago....
how about WALMART, the largest retailer IN THE WORLD, fucking DONATE those $10-20 tents they sell???? or even donate 10,000...it'd even be a tax write off for 'em!
I suck at math, but, I'm pretty sure with $60 mil, I could buy more than 100,000 tents. WTF ing F?
The whole article was shameful.
Is that US currency?
I suck at math too and I would have thought Miss Tia would have done it already but just off the top of my head I'm going to say $6000/unit. This is exactly why I didn't/not going to donate a dime. They Haitians were screwed before the earthquake and always will be.
It would be $600 a tent.

Nothing gets done if it's left up to Government.
Question should be; "What have you been doing with the 3 billion dollars you have received from the US in the last few years?."
Baharain, Kuwait and Morocco gave a 1 Million Dollar donation each. Cheapskates.
U.A.E. gave US$500,000 in food supplies. Assholes.
Saudis gave nothing!.
**I got it from American-Arab News
Take care of America first, and let the Americans who choose to be charitable do so out of kindness.
Don't take my tax money and use it like Astroglide to massage yourself a deal with another politician in a fucked up country ruled by bandits.

For $600 in materials and all the free labor from the volunteers and the homeless person themself, you can build a better shelter than a TENT!!!!!
They need some Habitat for Humanity people down there to show them how it is done!
I <3 Jarhead.
I love the way you express yourself, and they way you deliver your messages.
i bet the presidential palace in haiti gets rebuilt before peoples get tents!
i can't do math, i went to kent state!! (and if you are familiar with kent state you'll understand that joke!!)
The math joke is probably like the one for all us Californicators!
I agree, I am not going to donate ANYTHING for/to that corrupt country, while we have Americans who are homeless, going hungry, without a job. IT IS DISGUSTING how greedy they are! You know when some dumb ass gives them money, the politicians will keep it, and the people will get nothing!! I say, FUCK the rest of the world, while there are AMERICANS in need!
Corruption...Corruption...Corruption!!!
Haiti has been receiving hand outs for years and the powers that be screw the little guys every time.
yeah, maybe they should've used some of the money they used to build that freakin palace for their people instead.
