Can’t it be both, or rather one thing allowed the next thing to happen more easily?

France and the US screwed Haiti over.
Corrupt and or misguided leadership screwed Haiti over.
Natural disaster exacerbates the situation for the citizens every so often.

“You just dismissed facts just to confirm your own bias!”

And so did you.

Yeah, well I think we all know why you want to ignore the multigenerational corruption, incompetence, extortion, bribery, rake-offs, stealing, terrible human rights, no rule of law, no foreign trade. That’s why Haiti is dirt poor, Why won’t you admit it? The usual reason?

You just dismissed facts just to confirm your own bias! France has a lot to answer for, concerning Haiti and the former French colonies in Africa. Know the truth!,

We have suffered financial and social disasters year after year due to hurricane PLP and typhoon BIU. Nobody has come to our aid.

Have mercy for others. You are blessed here. He is highlighting the tragedy in Haiti. I am sure if Bermuda were to experience such sadness others would empathize.

Oh yeah. Nothing to do with intergenerational corrupt leadership, papa doc and baby doc. Bribery, extortion, punitive taxes, rake-offs, self-dealing, terrible human rights, no rule of law, no foreign trade. That’s why Haiti is dirt poor.

In my thoughts yes, but money, no. Same as Oxfam and all the other “charities”. The money does not get to those in need.

Maybe we should be highlighting why the infrastructure of Haiti is so poor, rendering them vulnerable of earthquakes. Because the evil nation of FRANCE demanded Haiti compensate them the equivalent of 21 Billion for wanting to be free of French slavery. France considered Haiti wanting freedom from slavery as a loss of property and threatened military action if Haiti didn’t pay. So instead of Haiti using 21 Billion to build schools, healthcare, their infrastructure etc., they had to give it to their colonizer. Yet we are brainwashed enough to pray for France when they have tragedies.

And the irony is he does not keep or present the situation/s in Bermuda.

Thyme for change.
