PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Trash and sewage are piling up at the squalid tent camps that hundreds of thousands have called home since Haiti's devastating earthquake — and with torrential rains expected any day, authorities are not even close to providing the shelters they promised.

As if an earthquake leveling the place wasn't enough.

Two months since the Jan. 12 quake, the government has yet to relocate a single person, despite a pledge that people would be moving into resettlement areas by early February.

They can't relocate because...

Aid groups say they're ready to build but don't have the land. Government officials insist they are making progress on finding sites in closed-door negotiations with private landowners.

Damn they're really screwed.

But time is running out for 600,000 people living under tarps, tents or simply bed sheets...

Dangggggg 600k

What do you guys think? Is Haiti screwed over?

And above your tomb, the stars will belong to us.

Haiti government officials sticking their hands out, wanting a cut of the aid money before they let things get going..

Meanwhile, large sections of the population at risk for epidemic disease outbreak.
