Agree with Barbados paper-can’t believe company would be so greedy to have their luxury liners stop at Haitian beaches when most of the country is in ruins.Many survivors probably are camped near these sites. Those who participate are just as calloused. Maybe the ship will have some mechanical failure-a/c goes out!
