The United Nations reported that 1.5 million people are starving right now in Haiti. Biden needs to take action, along with the UN and every nation that is able to help.
The first step is to make the peace so that the aid can be received, they need to have peace so that the food and supplies can be brought in.
And then they need new wise leaders in Haiti. I had a History Professor from Haiti who is brilliant and so I know that Haiti has brilliant people, Haiti just needs for the brilliant people to rise to the top. A lot of people have been trying to help in Haiti for a long time with no success, such as Sean Penn who volunteered in Haiti for years. The secret is to start educating the children when they are young. And for the people who are starving, they can be given school as they are fed food to eat, we can feed their bodies and their minds. ( And Church is great too, if only we could teach all of the children of the world to obey the 10 Commandments and the Golden Rule. ) And we can teach them about the book "Animal Farm" by George Orwell, etc. We can also teach them farming and agriculture. And they have seafood, etc.
Maybe the people of Haiti can be like a big Native American Indian Tribe, and the young people work, and the old people are the Chiefs and the elders, they could have a welfare system like the Incas, etc. The children go to school while the young people work and then the Seniors are their leaders and teachers, etc.
Just having free enterprise is not going to work in Haiti, the whole situation needs to change. Maybe they can learn from Costa Rica, Costa Rica is a huge success.
And Colombia is doing great right now, and they are spending a lot of money to invest in the Arts in Bogota, etc, they can invest in the Arts and in Fashion, etc. Shakira and Education have been helping Colombia, and a long line of great Presidents in Colombia, some of whom attended Harvard, etc.
Maybe Father Boyle and Homeboy Industries could offer advice to Haiti, I do not know.
You could give them all cigarettes and get them all addicted, and then raise the price of cigarettes and then make them work growing food in order to pay for their cigarettes. Cigarettes are very addictive and smokers will do almost anything for a cigarette when they are addicted, so you can make them grow food to feed the hungry in exchange for money to buy cigarettes, etc. There are low level economies that operate on cigarettes, like in prison, or in a homeless shelter, people will work for cigarettes when they are addicted.They can use cigarettes as the motivator of their economy if nothing else. If they will not work to help their poor, then maybe they will work for a cigarette if they are addicted. That is a sad economy, but it is better than what Haiti has now. Cuba can grow the tobacco for the cigarettes for Haiti to be used to motivate an improved economy in Haiti. In the homeless shelter the manager gave the homeless people cigarettes to clean the toilets, etc, and to mow the lawn, and to do needed tasks, addicted people will work in exchange for cigarettes.
Salute,
Tony V.
