Corporate America Contributions

Most Haitians have a daily income of $2 per day. Some ridiculous 70% have contracted HIV. About half of the total population (over age 15) can read and write.

Why does it take a devastating natural disaster for the First World to care?

Better yet, why has texting been one of the more effective ways of raising money and support? I don't know if that's effective manipulation of capitalism or if it's just plain lazy.

For some this month is about the Company Cruise and all the necessary preparation. If you're serious about this, then give thought to a strict regimen of Diet Coke and sugar-free jell-o. But that seems like a direct flight to misery and self-loathing. Plus size models have actually been in demand lately. And by "plus size" I mean to say "of normal height and weight".

Plus size models. Ha, because the new models make me think "go ahead, have that cookie that's going to make your thighs bulge and face breakout". It certainly isn't changing the way we think overnight. Maybe instead of texting for funds, relief organizations should seek out the cruise-takers of Corporate America for food stuffs. That's a win-win.
