> From Kathleen:
    I returned from an 11-day stay in Venezuela yesterday.  During that
time, I marveled at how, no matter how poor the community or person, there
was NO begging.
    Lance's post especially reminded me of how the begging problem in Haiti
has
gone in past years from asking to expecting to reproaching to taking.  Then,
of course, kidnapping for ransom.
    When did the "first free black republic" become such a nation of
mendicants?
Have you, at last Haiti, no pride, no ability to see what is unattractive
and ultimately destructive to everyone and every institution that
encounters/approaches you in your promise and your natural beauty?
Kathleen
