Haiti is a wreck. It isn't a country. It's completely and utterly hopeless. I recently heard a missionary that works in Haiti say that 90% of the people there are undereducated and something like 70% are illiterate.

To claim that there is a leader to such rabble must be a joke two centuries old. The problem of creating good will for Jews among the PA is simple in comparison to what to do with Haiti.

It makes you want to throw your hands in the air and tell them they are on their own, except we don't want any of them around here. We have problems of our own. In terms of an asset there is one thing to be said of Haiti. Since somewhere has to be the worst place on earth to live, it may as well be Haiti.

Since it's unlikely we will start using Haiti as a place to test Navy ordnance, I'm curious as to any other possible solution to the Haiti problem. I just wonder who but a thief would claim to lead such a place except there can't be much left there to steal.

A fellow running for Michigan office once responded to a similar question regarding a troubled region of Michigan....

"Bulldoze the whole thing, pave it, and start over...."

Sadly he did not win the election.
