You blame the poor people of Haiti for the corruption of their government and the exploitation of their land, in racist terms.

My post did not once mention race.

In fact, I pointed out the admirable and astounding success of Singapore - a multiracial society made up of mostly ethnic Chinese and Indians with a smattering of Europeans. I am neither Indian nor Chinese but can only look with admiration at the wonderful society the good people of Singapore have created.

Haitians have had 200 years of Independence to build some kind of society and economy. They have consistently failed monumentally - No mean feat in the hemisphere of riches that surrounds them.

Haiti's story was a bit different. Sort of like if Al Sharpton suddenly found himself in charge... The Haitians went on a rampage and murdered nearly all of the whites in 1805 and have reaped what they have sown. A turd-world African failed state in an otherwise largely prosperous hemisphere - every single nation in our hemisphere - except Communist Cuba - is far more prosperous than anything Africa can claim - except Haiti. 200 years after the butchering of the white French, Port Au Prince is still a sewer.
