In Haiti.

We were at Venezuela’s largest orphanage, just after lunch. The yard was an obstacle course of abandoned children. A little chunk of a boy, on the cusp of 3, sat on a play scooter. He was called El Gordo — the fat one. But when he was left here a few months ago, he was skin and bones. He zoomed past a 3-year-old in a pink shirt with tiny flowers. “She doesn’t talk much,” one of the attendants said, tousling the girl’s curly hair. At least, not anymore. In September, her mother left her at a subway station with a bag of clothes and a note begging someone to feed the child.

And you can bet these children will not be allowed to be adopted by people from the US. Even though there are probably over 1 million couples who would love to do so.
Takes a village, what Hillary truly meant
Where are all the Leftists who have insisted for decades that Communism is superior to Capitalism? We don’t see these cheerleaders from Hollywood, our universities, and the media going to Venezuela to witness yet another collapse of a country cursed with a Leftist government.
this is a taste of what could happen here. We survived the Great Depression because we were one people, all on the same page. Now we’re a fourth-world flophouse for diseased criminal vagabonds. There will be no bouncing back when the house of cards blows over
Whatever one can say about the Gulf States at least they take of their own people and do not eat the seed corn as Venezuela has done.
My brother went to Hondurus years ago to help at an orphanage, ended up going back for many years. He mentioned off-hand how they had put a new coat of paint in the dining hall for when the parents would visit in the fall.
“Huh? The parents? I thought they were orphans?”
“No - many of them have parents, and siblings that still are at home. These are the kids they can’t/won’t take care of.”
Unbelievable. Can you imagine living in an orphanage, and once a year get to see your brothers and sisters that still live at home!?
My brother ended up supporting one of the kids they met - even paid for him to go to secondary school so he could get a decent job down there. And of course the dollar goes a lot farther down there - so helping them out down there is a lot better than bringing them up here to help. Plus the kid stayed down there and is now helping their economy.
The benefits of socialism.
Got news for you. This was widespread practice in Eastern Europe.
The disconnect here is amazing. The compost published this article about how bad it is in Venezuela, but then continues to do everything in its power to conspire with the Democrats to bring about the same results here in the USA (fundamentally transform the country I believe is the term)
Wherever Leftists rule there’s poverty, crime and despair... look at the inner cities in decades run Democrat control. They are all Socialist sh**holes... the people captive in mind and body, “owned” by their white Liberal “masters”. If Trump shakes even 5% of the black vote from the DemWits, they won’t be elected dog catcher... you can feel their FEAR!
And this is President Trump’s fault, how?
IF Hillary was President, all these children would have jobs in the child sex slave industry.

Exactly what the Uber left likes. Indoctrinated at birth.
A local church here sponsors an orphanage/home in Central America.
There was a story of a boy joining his older sister at the home. They cited abuse and opportunity. The family had more kids than they could feed.
Going to the orphanage that sent kids to school through middle school with a few scholarships for high school meant they’d end up with an 8th grade versus 5th grade education and maybe more.
Note - there are a lot of Central American and Mexican immigrants with a 5th-8th education.
We would happily take in three or four of them if we could.
“Got news for you. This was widespread practice in Eastern Europe.”
Was? It still happens on an epic scale in Romania.
