It probably doesn't help that I'm reading stuff like this. Apart from the fact that it's making me despair about the state of the world and the way that people are forced to live, it's a gripping view of life in poverty without hope. Folks are, if nothing else, very rational.
At work, we also saw a video for this organization, who do the good work of providing micro-loans to Haiti's rural poor. Very moving, again, but I think I need to spend less time reading the news and more time looking at pictures of kittens in baskets or polar bear cubs in baskets.
