Haiti

I am embarrassed by our nations' response.

Emergency medicine and search and rescue are necessary but insufficient.
Population support should have equal status.
Clearing and activating the seaport is now long overdue.

An alternative:
Amphibious landing of supplies.

Another:
A port improvised from river barges and assault bridges.

If we were to support the population in place, and ship cement, rebar and form work they will rebuild in months. Aggragate appears to be every where.

Let the Haitians work. Tell them how to build better.
