Hi Lionne (hope I got it right this time).

I actually posted a message that was similar to Ruben's point on wealth and oil. So I agreed with him on somethings.

Robert and I disagreed with him on his statement that education should take priority over electricity.

But it is not his argument over one or the other issue that I had a problem with; it was his low-blow attack on us because we disagreed with him that I felt was uncalled for. Rubens does tend to get testy and even unpleasant sometimes when he feels the argument is not going his way. It does not happen often and most of the time he and I can keep on an issue until we've exhausted it.But when he does let the worst of him get the best of him, than I point it out to him.

The topic is: Qualified Teachers or Electricity for the mass
This is a reply to Msg 5911

Linda, Yes I am aware of private companies generating electricity and selling it back to the state of Haiti but they are illegal. There is no law that legalized their existence on Haitian soil that I am aware of.(sorry I had to put that out there). I > >

Hi Robert; it's always a pleasure to read you. I don't doubt that this can be done, I just wonder if it will indeed benefit all or at least most Haitians like the oil in Dubai or Qatar benefited their citizens. In Qatar, since the discovery of oil, > >

Mr. Toussaint, Je ne questionne pas la credibilite d'un chercheur et scientifique haitien comme Mr. Mathurin. Je suis plutot souciex de la naivete de plus d'un que notre Haiti est finalement sauvee a cause de la decouverte des gisements rentables de > >

Rubens, I never said that what was going with the electricity was a good thing. I was just stating some facts. As for the phone system, you are wrong. Only Haitians who have wealth have phones that actually work.And I use the term "work" with caution > >

Linda et Toussaint, je ne pense que vous ne connaissez l'Haiti que je connais." Vous suggerez qu'il faut satisfaire les besoins primaires du peuple avant de l'instruire.." Je pense exactement le contraire: instruire le peuple et il satisfera son prop > >

Rubens, it is a cop-out to start attacking people just because they don't agree with you. Stating that Robert and I don't know Haiti as well as you do just because we have a different opinion than you on what she needs is a sign of weakness; it is a > >

I tend to agree with Rubens. Nigeria is a perfect example of a country rich in oil and the majority of the population still live in porverty, the government is profiting while their health is deteriorating. Shell has a partnership with the government > >

Hola Linda: I understand your point, but I can't talk, because I am a hell cat sometimes, and I have a tendency to tell people off, just to have the last word. But I am learning from everybody. My sister did not help things last year either. I would > >
