How about the other “neighbors” attached to the same backyard pony up a little something?

The idea that because we have it, we have to give it to someone who didn’t earn it is no different from the ideas underlying some taxation, “social justice” and zero’s redistribution of wealth.

We don’t “OWE” Haiti anything. If any one “owes” Haiti anything, it’s the French. If we decide to GIVE aid because we want to, fine.

Haiti may matter to you personally for some reason, and that’s your business. But please don’t presume to speak for me as an American and what my responsibilities, as an American citizen, are to Haiti or any other parasitic country.

I strongly object to our military resources being dispatched to Haiti. The theme of Haitian ‘entitlement’ has already started with rat congressional politicians.

“I strongly object to our military resources being dispatched to Haiti. “

Disagree with you there. Powerful countries do this kind of thing. Weak ineffective ones don’t.

You don’t just sit back in an event like this and do nothing. It solidifies our position as a leader and a superpower to take care of our back yard.
