It's because Haitians are gone as soon you are bored by them. Homeless keep annonying you, as you have to see them every day and you can't change that.

This is a very important point brought up by the thread starter; and it has even deeper implications....See, there needs to be a shift in paradigm so that we can focus on standard of living, rather then focusing on the world's tragedies. Because if you restore a person's life in tragedy, only so much so that they can continue to live in misery and squalor then you have actually decreased the standard of living in the world.Let me give another example not associated with Haiti. People complain about the loss of America jobs to factories overseas. In reality, this is nothing to complain about if we simply switch the focus from jobs to standard of living. Because the fact that production jobs are being relocated abroad only means that we have advanced from a producing society to a service society. And where backbreaking production jobs are lost, service jobs will be gained. And on top of that, we can then enjoy the products made overseas at cheaper prices; thus increasing our expandable income. So the president, if he was smart, he should never talk about "American jobs". Or needing to provide jobs in America, instead he should only talk about increasing the "standard of living"... or better yet, not talk or do anything at all and leave things to the free market.

Would be fine, if only it would be true that service jobs randomly pop up as soon as production jobs are lost. People lose their production job, don't get an equal "service job" in return and thus lose standard of living and dignity.
