"The Dominican Republic happens to use slave laborers from Haiti in its sugar industry."

You're so full of s#it.

I happen to know the sugar industry in the DR intimately, AND I actually KNOW the definition of slavery...you know neither.

The workers in the DR come voluntarily, leave when they want to, earn wages, receive housing, and don't have to be there if they don't want to. They could stay in Haiti and do...nothing.

Hardly fits the definition of slavery.

Then again, you seem to communicate in empty sloganeering designed by communists.

You want to disguise bigger government control as freedom....that's Fidel's tune and I for one ain't buying it.
