Haiti is an overpopulated country with a virtually nonexistent government. So, where buildings fell, they fell on people. Also most of the aid that is being sent to Haiti (mainly money) is being hoarded by the wealthy. This is leading to looting and killing for necessities. But every time supplies are sent they go to the same people. Which is why so many Haitians are coming to America.
