Pd+5+Haiti



====This political cartoon uses the symbles of Uncle Sam to repersent United States, the rubble and trash as Haiti, and the boom terrorist to repersent other countries. The message this cartoon is sending me is that we (United States) are humaine, even though other countries call us evil.====

====This cartoon appeals to me in a positive way because the author shows us as the humane and kind people we are. This cartoon uses the symble of two populair toys and a Haitian child as satire to our society because of the trend of adopting Haiti children. Adopting children from third world countries has become of a common thing because of the influence of famous people. Now I'm not saying that adopting children is bad, because I am all for it, but what about the children here. Is it not the same to adopt a baby here then from a poor third world country?====

Should the US Help Haiti?- Jennifer Slusarski The US should help Haiti. The tragic earthquake has left them in a state of disrepair. They need all the help they can get. It is far beyond them to help themselves. As the US we should help other countries. We all need to help each other get through rough times. Haiti needs food and supplies, and we can give them all we can. We cannot ignore the country and let them fend for themselves. If we, the US, were in need of help, we would hope and pray for it. Haiti should be able to depend on us for help. If we ever need anything, they would be willing to return the favor if possible. The US needs to make a good impression and help those in need. It is humane and morally right to help them. The US is helping Haiti now. Millions of Americans are donating money to the cause. We are doing all we can to help. We can only do so little. We need to give Haiti a push so in the future they will know how to save themselves. The US can only help, we cannot take control. Haiti is their own country and they need to get themselves on track. The money and supplies we raise for Haiti can help rebuild, but it will not rebuild the country completely.
