Plenty of cults exist - every cult has its 'religious dogma', its idols, its 'prophets', its 'science', its 'proof' and its intolerant liturgy of demands.

The failed state of Haiti has received more than $2 billion in aid in the past 6 years. All of it for non-emergency, non-disaster relief. The 2004 hurricane disaster pulled in well over a $1 billion and the recent 2010 catastrophe will do likewise. But here is a question. When does the Haitian funding/foreign aid scam end ? A small country of 9 million people squeezed in on a 60 km wide piece of real estate abutting the Dominican Republic has received in per capita terms, some $440 per person just in the last 6 years. This is remarkable both in size, fraud, corruption and immorality. Excuse my callousness, but where the hell is this money going to ? Why are the taps not turned off ? When is a failed state like Haiti forced into paternalistic reform ?
Foreign aid never works. Africa, with the pop-idiots, movie-stars and media celebrities all declaring their 'African commitment' has consumed $ 2 Trillion in the past 40 years generating a return of exactly zero, replete with war, disease, genocide, Arab decimation of Blacks in Darfur, legendary corruption and now the exportation of radical Islam from various failed states. For $ 2 Trillion private agencies could have gone into Africa and built systems of sewage, sanitation, water potability and schooling – and still had money left over.
But of course in the era of strong man rule – the Great Black Jesus in the USA, Putin or Mr. Travels in Russia, Chavez the strutting midget in Venezuela etc. -- it is government which has to do everything. Even a purportedly 'private' charity like the Red Cross, which is the largest in the world, receives government funding for almost all of its outlays for shelters, homes, disaster aid, and food relief. Not a bad business model. Receive private donations and get your expenses paid by the government. Then declare that you are a not for profit. Pay your executives close to a million dollars a year in salary. Yep no profit here.
Aid agencies love disasters. Their revenues soar. Their 'admin costs' expand. And their concern conflates. Yet what happens will all of this private and government sponsored charity ? How many pennies on the dollar reach the victims ? Is it 10% of total monies which actually find their way to help the disaster's victims ? 20%, 30 %, 2 % ? It can't be that large. The Red Cross for example earns $3 billion in revenues per year and books at least 10% of that into 'disaster funds' which is of course how it hides its profits. Certainly only a small fraction of all the money given by you to the Red Cross, or by governments to Haiti, will actually end up helping Haitians.
So where does all this money go ?
According to the US Government, the US has given Haiti almost a billion dollars in the past 6 years. Almost a billion more from other sources was pledged before the latest disaster – or $ 2 billion in total:
“Apart from earthquake relief, senators working on the next annual foreign assistance budget have proposed at least $282 million for Haiti; the House proposal would provide at least $165 million.
Much of the U.S. government's aid to Haiti comes through the Agency for International Development, which has provided at least $800 million from budget years 2004 through 2008, agency figures show.
At least $700 million more was pledged to Haiti by governments, international givers and charities at an April 2009 donors conference. Former President Bill Clinton, a United Nations special envoy to the country, told the U.N. Security Council in September that he was "100 percent committed to delivering tangible results to the U.N. and most importantly the people of Haiti."
The 2004 hurricane destruction and other disasters have received hundreds of millions if not billions in aid as well. So let's see. We have some $4 billion being given to Haiti over say 5-6 years. There are 9 million people in this small land. That equates to over $400 per person. So where are the audits on this massive transfer of wealth ? Where are audited lists of the earthquake proof buildings, the vast array of shock-proof medical clinics, and where are the emergency relief teams and depots of stocked food, medicine, bedding and emergency material ? This is not the first time Haiti has experienced a natural disaster. So where are all of the assets which we paid for ? No where of course.
The simple answer is that the money is being corrupted and stolen. Very little of the $400 per capita transfer has found any uses whatsoever inside Haiti – except to populate the overseas bank accounts of its ruling mafia. Haiti is in other words, just another example of a failed state, living on the world's welfare system. A culture of voodoo, black magic, lethargy, no creativity and no education, a state which is so poor, anti-modern and anti-reality that death rates, diseases and illiteracy, which were unknown in North American even 150 years ago, still dominate. Haiti is a self-inflicted, self-corrupted, disgusting, immoral, anti-humanist, anti-reality mess.
So where is all this money going ? It is lost.
“Corruption, theft, violence and other security problems and Haiti's sheer shortage of fundamentals - reliable roads, telephone and power lines and a sound financial system - will add to the challenges of making sure aid is spent properly as foreign governments and charities try not only to help Haiti recover from this week's devastating earthquake but to pull itself out of abject poverty.
Past efforts haven't been easy. The Government Accountability Office, the investigative arm of Congress, faced problems on a smaller scale in 2005 and 2006 as auditors tried to review the use of roughly $45 million in aid the U.S. provided after Tropical Storm Jeanne struck Haiti in September 2004, killing more than 2,000 people, injuring more than 2,600 and affecting an estimated 300,000 others.
The inspectors wanted to visit projects funded with the money to measure progress. But after an initial fact-finding trip to Haiti, it was considered too dangerous for them to go back.” http://www.wqow.com/Global/story.asp?S=11827340
So when do you cut them off ? Or do you weep hysterically and lament neo-imperialism, white racism, and the blight of white culture ? Keep in mind that it is the whites, the American military, the French forces, the English do-gooder charities and the international white dominated churches which are the first responders to a catastrophe. It is also the Western states who have given the Haitians $4 billion over 6 years. Not the Muslims, not the Arabs, not the Latins and not the Africans. Only Western states give on this scale.
The only hope for Haiti is a military intervention by the US and forced paternalism. The only way to cleanse the sewer which is Haiti is by US imperialism. Eradicate the rot and fraud; enable laws and institutions to develop; and re-orient the culture from voodoo mysticism to rationality, spirituality, education and markets. That is it. No other solution exists. The Haitians won't do it – especially if you keep the welfare water taps on. Turn the taps off. Force the Haitians to join reality via US paternalistic guidance.
It is their only hope.
