We plan to act and help where we can... right now we are feeding about 500 kids in St Marc, Haiti. We are seeking some longer term solutions to help them help themselves... but after seeing kids starving when I was in Haiti November 2007. I HAD to begin to help!

That happens when the only source of revenue in a country is sugar, and people suddenly stop its production. Haiti's poverty comes from there, and from the socio-economical organization installed there, which made the nation a sugar-only supplier. The new government and its free people couldn't run its farms, most people didn't want to go back to the farms where they were enslaved, and the europeans hadn't prepared the country for anything else than sugar farming. Why Haiti hasn't developed until now, is the question to be asked, and again, it isn't. For now there are no questions to be asked, only actions to be done.

I'd rather say that those countries are poor because their former colonizers have taken away all the resources there. It's not a question of "who killed who". I’m more realistic.

It’s not a question of “who killed who”.

Haiti is poor because they killed the white people who provided for them during their disastrous revolution of 1804. Zimbabwe is poor because Mugabe and his low-IQ thugs are doing the same thing 200-+ years later. Anybody see a pattern here?
