It was actually doing ok, in the 1950s, until Papa Doc and the Tonton Macoutes wiped out Haiti’s Middle Class.
That great line “The Foundation is Chelsea’s piggy bank.”
Nobody on this board has enough money to pay me to go to Haiti.
Haiti. Exhibit A of a “post-colonial” success story.
Hispaniola at night
What Does Haiti Have to Show for $13 Billion in Earthquake Aid?"
Everyone hold tightly to their chair arms as I say this: If Biden wins with solid Dem House and Senate and several new SCOTUS nominees rubberstamped, and BLM reigning, many police departments abolished and tens of thousands of illegals and terrorists swarming across our borders in 2021 many of us will be tempted to upgrade our lives by sneaking into Haiti. Kidding (I hope).
Maybe not, but we could start a GoFundMe and harness the generosity of the internet, if you're inclined to reconsider.
Haiti/DR is like Jamaica,dont leave the beaten path or your dead
Many and most of those tourist magnets are 3rd 4th world countries.
US citizens still flock there supporting the marxist governments.
Foolish Yankees
Come to Gasparilla Island fools, spend your doubloons here.....save yer life.
We love cops, blacks whites, hispanics all tall.
Yer money is Green.
If things go far enough south, my bug out joints are Iceland, Costa Rica or Panama.
DR population: 10,000,000.
DRs living in the US: 2,000,000 (40% in NYC).
Haiti population: 11,000,000.
Haitians in US: 880,000.
Hillary’s foundation should be able to cool this down.
I know where to get some pins
Clinton Foundation ping.
Surprised Liberia and the Ivory Coast haven’t gone sideways this year,too.
Each is superior to Haiti, as you say.
I'm planning on making sure that other timeline will be ours: President Trump re-elected and a GOP House and Senate.
May God help us in that endeavor. Amen.
OK, so now we’ll have US taxpayer ransom/reparations worldwide.
Yeah, well, bring it.
The most likely is I just go down in flames here.
Petionville is up high overlooking the flats of port au prince and was ok in my pre earthquake days
Fore the Hotel Montana got pancaked
