It’s great that the US is giving so much to Haiti, but everything Obama does he uses as photo op. It would be nice if he gave as much attention to domestic problems (i.e., lack of employment, the people NOT wanting him to focus on health care, etc., etc.) as he is willing to give to Haiti. My heart goes out to the people in Haiti, and like many other Americans, more funds would be given if more people had jobs, or their hours had not been cut. Even people who had to take part time work have had their hours cut. Of course, this isn’t accounted for in the unemployment figures (which are not true, anyway).

How about the Feds giving focused attention to unemployment and leave the help in Haiti to reputable organizations? I would think they would want people working since they need taxpayers to pay for their spending— or is it the plan to have JUST the wealthy pay and to keep the rest of the population poor. That is true socialism.
