We might have forgetten...

...about Haiti because the news vans left, but awesome people like Sean Penn have not. He had key things to say last night on Bill Maher I think yall should check out:

Take note:
Bill: A lot of people think we should devote our resources to a country that really needs to be rebuilt, America. I know you're a guy who follows politics pretty closely. If you, you probably are on occasion asked to rub shoulders with the people who run the world in Washington. I'm sure you've met the president.

Sean:No I have not.

Bill: You've never met Barack Obama?

Sean: No I held back because I wanted to write freely about him early on. But I think I know where you're going and I'd like to say ya know so much of what America is in rebuilding itself financially, the federal reserve, our system of currency is so much smoke and mirrors and so much of what we are as a dominant personality in the world. And that personality is THINNED OF CHARACTER at this point. And the character investment in Haiti is the beginning of a seed of a building of America that we haven't lived in our lifetime.

*AWESOME and well said* here's the rest....


What gets cut off in the last clip is a great point that Michael Moore makes: we didn't hear much about Chile because in Chile they had strict building regulations so when an earthquake that was of a much greater magnitude struck, less than 1000 people died. However in Haiti, what Moore calls a "Republicans Paradise" (due to lack of regulations), hundreds of thousands perished. He compared this to our current financial state. We have returned to playing the game as usual with no sanctions and no regulations. They are continuing to rob us blind.

Wake up folks.
