"Haiti's futile race against the rain"
By Lawrence Downes

This article is about how Haiti's government is struggling to find a solution to not being able to house over 1 million people effected by the harsh storm. Because they are unable to find a place to put them, Haiti's president decided to move all the haitians back to the shattered streets of Port-au-Prince. They are trying to house everyonee properly before the rain season officially starts.officials think that all they need to do is clear just enough of the mess so that people can continue to live there, yet its so much of disaster area.
I feel like they are not doing enough to try to fix the problem.they could send the haitians to other places besides port au prince. It doesnt make sense to take people out of disaster and send them to a still dumpy and shattered area.if they clear the rubble they wont find much left so it doesnt make sense to do that and then put people back there so they can live in the middle of a disaster area.
