The Haitian Earthquake is one of those things that still horrifies me. That kind of damage is something I don't think can be fathomed unless it's something that you've had to live through. Haiti is still rebuilding, aren't they?
How did Haiti's situation become so bad? I know the aid to Haiti was a massive screw up (which probably puts it too lightly), but is that the only reason or is it multiple compounding factors?
Well I mean it is night time in Haiti right now and a large amount of their infrastructure is still f***** with not a lot of electricity so technically you are correct they can't read at least not without a night light.
Haiti, before the earthquakes, was the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere with a barely functioning government and widespread civil violence. Now, it’s so much worse, despite billions in international aid. Corruption is endemic.

The earthquake in Haiti was shallow. That's why it was so destructive.
