Fuegoazul,
What are you talking about? Where exactly do you get your information (in general not only in this thread)?
BTW did you read the whole thread? This initiated from a three part documentary that showed the EXPLOITATION of Haitians who are being brought to the DR on a false ideal. They are brought under the notion that they would work in hotels but they are forced to work in deplorable conditions for peanuts or as I define it "modern day slavery". As per the focus of the documentary they are not there voluntarily. Your post is a
glorified version of a situation that needs immediate attention, cessation and resolution. Pib said it best "you are very misinformed".

Its been our thing since columbus came here .We have the right land , environment,and the expertise to do so. I dont think the Haitians in Dr are not gonna like it,this would mean that most of them would be out of jobs, hence more poverty, but it also gives them less reason to come to dr ,so its a good thing.Haiti was the true suger country , but i guess bad management,bad environemt,and neglect put an end to that.However i think its something that Haiti should get back into considering their past success.This will be a great economic source for them .I think Dr can help them by withdrawing from the suger market and giving haiti more room to grow . This would also have most cane cutting Haitians going back to Haiti,which would be better for them .Not only will they have a job waiting for them , they will also return to thier beloved homeland ,where they will not be discriminated against , exploited , abused ,deported, harassed by police for being Haitian .
