It depresses me that places like Haiti with potential such as oceanside view for residences and resorts and Gaza with the same and under Hamas cannot seem to utilize and exploit these resources to the good of all their people. Why would anyone wish to “live” a meagre and miserable existence dependent upon the vagaries of sporadic charity of others? And at no more than a bare subsistence level, with not much hope for ever bettering their situation?

Does modern Haiti (today) boast of any intrinsic value or natural resources.

I'm not positive,but I thought I heard that Haiti had large gold deposits.

Let it consume itself. Stay away. Don’t fund anything. The problem makers will be buried or eaten. Come back to check in five years.

Surely we could spare a hundred billion dollars or so to guarantee Haiti’s borders?

Not our circus, and definitely not our clowns. Let them fix their own problems.

“Do it for the children”

Sorry...time to go back to isolationism. We can take care of ourselves.
