If the Biden administration is “helping” then, YES, things will get much worse.
Voodoo, envy, vengefulness, no rule of law. The only way to gain wealth is to rise with a new regime and power. The individual entrepreneur is cut down
An alternative explanation is that the politicians in the countries providing the foreign aid are all getting wealthy through graft and have no interest in actually helping Haiti.
Even closer to Dominican Republic. Compare.
Just maybe they should have not murdered ALL of the Caucasians living there many years ago?
Haiti was definitively analyzed by Hernando De Soto in his book “Mystery of Capital,” Haiti has no shot at a modern economy, no matter how much money is poured down its throat.
Close to 20% of Major League Baseball players were from the Dominican Republic - Haiti's next door neighbor - just a few years ago.
The Dominicans are not killing each other for pocket change.
Yes, 80% of the population could be moved here.

The Clintons, along with VICTORIA NULAND, have caused this CHAOS in HAITI!
Haiti’s average IQ is 67!
Could that have something to do with it?
The Dominican Republic is poor but have a solid tourist industry. Many resorts owned by Italians. I know this because I have a friend that used to go there. Who wants to be a tourist in Haiti? I remember when loony David Byrnes was promoting Haiti. DB from The Talking Heads
Amusingly, his biggest complaints about the DR were the all pervasive native music you hear everywhere. That would drive him nuts within 10 days.
Perhaps gang members of an armed gang should be treated as members of an irregular military group.
They could be rounded up and placed into camps until a peace treaty is negotiated.
It is my understanding that the Germans rounded up during 1941-1945 by the Soviet Union were not released until 1955.
Hidden cameras could be placed to identify gang members.
I live in Florida along the west coast.
There are Haitians here and they generally are hard workers, but very few are friendly, perhaps because of the language barrier.
Haiti probably should make standard French its official language. Haitian Creole may benefit its elite, but it keeps most of the country poor.
Yes. We could send back the Haitians in Florida.
As bad as it is…things can ALWAYS get worse in Haiti.
That place is a corrupt mess. And on the other side of the island, the DR thrives.
The strong will always prey on the weak.
When in Haiti now you don’t have to ask what’s on the menu? Its people.
VOODOO.
When Bill and Hillary Clinton travelled to the Caribbean nation of Haiti as newlyweds in 1975, they were enchanted. Bill had recently lost a race for Congress back home in Arkansas, but by the time they returned to the US, he had set his mind to running for Arkansas state attorney general, a decision which would put him on the path to the White House. “We have had a deep connection to and with Haiti ever since,” Hillary later said.
Over the next four decades, the Clintons became increasingly involved in Haiti, working to reshape the country in profound ways. As US president in the 1990s, Bill lobbied for sweeping changes to Haiti’s agricultural sector that significantly increased the country’s dependence on American food crops. In 1994, three years after a military coup in Haiti, Bill ordered a US invasion that overthrew the junta and restored the country’s democratically elected president to power. Fifteen years later, Bill was appointed United Nations’ special envoy to Haiti, tasked with helping the country to develop its private sector and invigorate its economy. By 2010, the Clintons were two of Haiti’s largest benefactors. Their personal philanthropic fund, The Clinton Foundation, had 34 projects in the country, focused on things such as creating jobs.

So where ya think the money went?
The Jamaicans I know have nothing good to say about Hatians as workers or as a people.
