Maybe the analogy is not fair; the Mississippi Delta which has some of the 
largest pockets of minority poverty in the United States has never been 
affected by any US business plan; any training program; any grant subsidies any 
tax incentives; any free hospitalisations,free day care; extended 
unemployment; or jump start boots on the ground houses for humanity ;.Benie Thompson 
one of the most powerful congressmen from the area and of the US ;(see 
homeland security) runs it like a feudal fiefdom ; the money comes in and it still 
after 40 years since schools were integrated  the future is bleak and 
blighted with people living in housing that makes Haiti look like paradise ....if 
we can't get it done here ..how are we going to get it done for Haiti /M
