Ok, I just felt the need to voice my opinions (outsisde of work) on the whole "Haiti" situation.
No, I'm not sending them money. Personally, I think that Haiti was a...for lack of a better word...a dump before hand, and it's not our responsibility to rebuild it. I am fine with people sending money for aid and such...we would probably need the same if the same happened to us. But to rebuild....rebuild what exactly?! I'm not saying that Haiti deserved what they got...far from it. It was a natural disaster..it happens..we all must deal with it. I just can't justify sending any of my money to rebuild a nation that was dirt poor to begin with. I'm not sending money to make Haiti better than it was before. There are entirely too many children starving in this country for me to be able to make that an option.
Yes, this is the "evil republican" in me writing this blog.
