Coincidence?...yesterday a government investigation into the $100's of billions given to bail-out banks with the consequence of $100's of millions given as bonuses to bank presidents....

 

and then....

 

the meagre $3-$6 million offered in aid by the United Nations relief fund and individual western European countries to the millions of  Haitians injured...homeless and starving as a result of yesterday's multiple earthquakes...

 

no bang for the buck with Haitian lives...

 

......so,... can we as iReporters do something more than debate?,...have opinions?....take photos and make videos?...can we mobilize and really make a difference...the reason, which for many of us, brought us together in the first place?

 

If we are really, as is often suggested, a community...can we mobilze and make a difference...?.

 

Everyone cares....it is time to go beyond that...act...

 

Help by bailing  out those who really need it.....they have needed it for decades and clearly need it now more than ever

 

Please,.. contact CNN producers and express your interest in acting and giving as a community.....
