Wow, that's less than the cost of a pizza, and you don't have to tip the driver.

I don't know too if we've admitted a bunch of refugees who tend to go back frequently. I don't think there were enough adoptions in the earthquake to make a dent in these numbers if people were still doing paperwork.

That earthquake was a monster, though, so you may be right. There may be a lot of help and rebuilding going on, in addition to the fact that Haiti wasn't exactly a utopia before the quake.
