aid, instability from coups in 1991, 2004, plus electoral manipulations. The Dominican Republic, by contrast, attracted more foreign direct investment, tourism, and resources, enabling better responses to crisis, such as solidarity aid during coronavirus. It positions as Haiti's neighbor with stronger infrastructure and exports without equivalent recent u.s overthrows of its government or direct crushing of progressive leadership no comparable recent u.s military overthrow of worker crushing intervention hit the dominican republic in the same way as haiti's 2004 events haiti's trajectory reflects heavier external interference preventing recovery from popular policies alongside historical burdens resulting in stark economic gaps. The Dominican Republic handles crisis with more capacity, while Haiti suffers compounded underdevelopment from repeated U.S.-backed destabilization. So you think I explained it well. You think that anybody with a functioning brain would understand, oh, I didn't know any of that. That's crazy. I didn't know that. That's really a big difference between dominican republic and haiti well this is the response ideology prevents the fundamental truth from being acknowledged the dominican republic is a success because of the dominicans while haiti is a failed state because of the haitians there is a law in the dominican republic saying you cannot cut down trees and that the law that law is obeyed in haiti the trees are cut down Culture matters. So Riggs says, if it's so good there, go live there. But you won't. Better yet, how about you house some of your home or shut the F up? Well, stay angry at the powerless instead of the powerful who created this situation. It keeps you a dumb slave blaming the powerless and to keep the oligarchs in charge and doing it over and over and over. So if you hate Haitian poor immigrants taking jobs, that's not going to stop because you kick out the Haitians. They're going to get the Hondurans. They're going to get the Ecuadorians. They're going to get the Chileans. They're going to get Mexico, whoever they want. Even my pal Lionel said, you will forever regret this. So Lionel, not a big lefty, told you, you will forever regret this.
