Your’s was an interesting post. It is interesting that countries ruled by blacks have not been successful in a modern sense of the word.

Still for those blacks who choose to become educated and are willing to work alongside others, they can be very successful.

In the western hemisphere, we can look to Haiti as an example of failure to educate and work hard as the problem why this tropical island is so poverty stricken.

I have a friend whose husband is often on missions to central America and Africa to help install stoves and water purification systems. Recently he found a friend who is an inventor, and together they plan to install lots of new water purification systems. This inventor told my friend’s husband that he has been to lots of countries south of the USA. In most of the areas the population chipped in with helping them do the labor - but in Haiti, no one offered to help them with digging or other preparation work for installing the stoves or water systems. His friend says he will never go to Haiti again.

This may sound harsh, but honestly, I wonder why he would bother. Even in a formerly productive city like Detroit in the US, copper and other saleable materials are stripped from homes and systems for a quick buck. The place has been just looted on a grand scale, as if an army of locusts passed through. And that’s an old, old story in majority-black and black-run areas.
