Despite the magnitude of the recent earthquake in Haiti and considering our astronomical national debt can the US actually afford to help?

Hannity just wants to see us occupy Hati. Just more Neocon agenda at work.
@lordaltay5
YES, They have no right to give away my hard earned dollars. Charity is not charity when it is forced through Taxes Fines or FEES. It is THEFT!!! If you wish to give your own wealth away, have at it, but leave mine alone.
I gave a small donation of my money, not my neighbors, not my friends, not the nations, MY MONEY.
Get government out of charity.
@VonHelton
What makes you think the money (from my taxes) are being used for Haiti, but used to finance the CIA to torture people or for the profits of the banksters, just saying it is going to Haiti or some other hell hole? It’s just smoke & mirrors for these thieves in DC.
The way to solve the problem is to stop voting for the 2-headed snake!
GET A WRITE-IN BALLOT AND PUT A NORMAL WORKING CLASS PERSON IN OFFICE, BE THEY CONSERVATIVE OR LIBERAL.
Its a simple answer, we cannot afford to help Haiti
WE as in the united states governent cannot.
WE as a people can.
(If we don’t, we will see a flood of immigrants with zero work ethic making their way to our shores… and south Florida cant afford that, either.)
lol Amen, my friend!
@thedemoboy I know we as in the United States government cannot afford it, that was my point. I’ve personally donated to both the Red Cross and Salvation Army.
@PoliticalSkeptic Exactly, I used to be a big fan of Limbaugh, Hannity and Levin, but now the wool is off my eyes, I have wakened up.
Get government out of charity; its easy for US politicians to appear extraordinary benevolent on the taxpayers dime.

i support my immediate family before a homeless shelter, i feed my kid before a bum down the street. The U.S. is borrowing money from china. the u.s. is in debt to china. why are we giving out foreign aid when we can’t even fix our own economy
The best way to help Haiti and othe poor countries is to chanhe world banking laws. President Aristede of haiti left with over 900 million dollars
I can’t help it. It comes naturally.
my sentiments exactly.
the only way i would advocate taxpayer money being sent to Haiti is if we sent Israel’s share.
I’m a Democrate but this guy is the most Balanced Republican I know.
So good. Keep it coming SA – great interview.
help apalachia. help the poor in america. btw there are more poor whites in america(mainly from the south) than any other group.
1.)France shoud pay Haiti reparations.Period.
2.)Haiti should be forgivin of its foreign dept by all G8 members,the IMF,IDB & World Bank.
3.)The liberal argument for the US’ moral commitment to developing countries is laregly based,not asmuch on any inherent obligaton of the US as much as our business & political interests being constantly imposed on poor indigenous nations,without even the slightest regard for their citizens.
4:20 Why didn’t the debt drop when we were running surpluses in the 1990’s?
@shandarius I don’t think SA would describe himself as a republican.
Can we start horse whipping our politicians?
I felt this way entirely. I also agree with investormark1 below.
Thank you SA.
