Not to be racist, but here I go being racist…Better.
Compare the life of a Cuban with the life of a Haitian.
Haiti has been under USA "stewardship".
I have spent time in both countries. And spent time with Haitians in DR and here.
In my opinion, Haiti and Haitians living there are corrupt to the core because of the French influence (not US) andthe SELFISH attitude of the Haitians who are not dirt poor. I helped with the humanitarian relief years ago after the earthquake. The fucking asshole Customs officers DEMANDED cash to let humanitarian aid into their country to help their fellow man. Several planes returned to Miami becathey simply had no cash on board.
That country is deeply fucked.
Too bad it became so corrupt.
