While I was at least somewhat prepared to witness the material poverty, I was blessed to see the spiritual & emotional health which would be the envy of any 1st world country, especially my own

Question:
Larry, why did you not also notice the unbelievably indecent monetary wealth of the 8% (approximate) elite population?

I believe that is one of the fundamental problems with people like you who say they want to help Haiti.

You deliberately ignore the obvious, because if you did not do so you would have to admit that Haiti does not need outside help, it just needs its own wealthy citizens to give a dam about their own nation.

As for the spiritual health of my people, that is not always a good thing.

I think it was Marx who said, â€Å"religion is the opiate of the masses

I will answer more on your project later.

But first, I need you to help me understand how exactly you think the Los Polos commercial plant would benefit your project; it seems to me that the opposite would be true.
