The stories out of Haiti are grim. Some claim that the government of Haiti has a policy of keeping the people hungry and still hoping (Espoir) so they can get their votes.
Its their power base. If that is true someone or a few people need to throw all those bums out of office.
They are getting quite a few millions from the international community.
Why anyone want to build more flea markets when they can have all the marchandes sign up a contract to contribute supplies and work in a nice grand SUPERMAKET OR SUPERMART.
They do not even have to contribute the supplies they can all work as equal parters in big Supermarkets or Supermarts spread throughout the country.
The marchandes would hold stocks and the government would decrease the cost of imports and transportation fees in the interest of benefiting the Haitian economy as a whole.
I guess those who are in office do not have much of a vision on how to improve things for everyone in Haiti.
Here are some interesting news sites:
