Today on Flashpoints: We dedicate the entire hour to Haiti. This coming Sunday is the 10th anniversary of the earthquake that killed over 300,000 Haitians in 2010 and led to a stampede of fundraising b charities, NGOs, missionaries and churches. Nearly 14 billion dollars was raised to ostensibly help Haitians though catastrophe and “build their country back better”. Shamefully, that never happened showing in the end that never have so few raised so much money to profit from the misery of so many.
