The Hill: US citizens urged to leave Haiti
The State Department on Wednesday urged all U.S. citizens in Haiti to leave the country on commercial flights, amid deepening political strife and economic disarray.
"Widespread fuel shortages may limit essential services in an emergency, including access to banks, money transfers, urgent medical care, internet and telecommunications, and public and private transportation options," reads a warning from the State Department.
The statement added that the U.S. Embassy in Port-au-Prince "is unlikely to be able to assist U.S. citizens in Haiti with departure if commercial options become unavailable."

"Haiti has received billions in aid over the years, and there is very little to show for it."
Yeah, kinda like the US spending billions, maybe trillions, over the years making the world a better place to live, but with very little to show for it. Except the hatred of those we spent the most money on.
Except an electorate taxed to death via any, and every avenue. Swimming in corruption.
