I'm not sure of the lifestyles of Haiti before the earthquake. I've heard from Haitian family members and friends that either you were rich or poor in Haiti; no in between.
The earthquake acted as a leverage in the economy. The rich and the poor are now living in the same condition; with the same constrain.
Although, some may eat better - or have easier access - the fact is most, if not all, are getting the food from the same source and if there are no food then no one eats.
While in Haiti; I notice four type of occupations prominent in Haiti now: Medicals, Mechanics, Drivers and Food vendors. Eventually teaching will be important again; however, I did not see operating schools on my last trip. However,
I did see a few students in uniforms; so school must be open in some of the communities - at least in tents.
