Only some Haitians are mixed with Taino, the majority are African genes. By the times the slaves arrived to Haiti, Colombus and the Europeans killed off most of the Taino population. The few Taino that were left hid in the mountains and were eventually found by escaped Haitian slaves "Neg mawon" and they intermixed.
Stats show that it takes about 200 days to open a small business in Haiti - contrast to 70 days avg Latin Amer. It also costs 2X the average wage (act. per capita) of about $1200 to do so - also far far higher than avg. for Latin Amer. Mind you, small businesses always produce the most job growth. Eliminate all barriers to starting small businesses and watch people FIND WORK. No culture, no race, no people on this earth could do better than Haiti with such oppressive government restrictions.
How are Haitiansmixed with Tainos when they all died and that is the only whites went to Africa to get Blacks. SMH You know damn well these Haitians are not mixed with no Indians that is your dreams since BLACKNESS seems to bother you.
@UniversalOneLove1 If PR and Dominicans are mixed with Tainos, then why can't Haitians? Skin color has very little to do with admixture, for one, especially since several generations have passed.
@shoryuken202 I like your some ideas. They are very similar to mine. Could you elaborate on your governmental grass roots projects idea? I don't quite understand that? Could you also elaborate on your idea about isolation? I don't really agree that Haiti needs to isolate itself. Haiti must compete in this global economy. Also check out the video I made similar to this. I list a bunch of ideas on how to "fix" Haiti.
@shoryuken202 much of what you're recommending would require a great deal of borrowing from other countries (Haiti just couldn't support the burden with taxes alone). Once upon a time in 1915 the U.S. invaded and occupied Haiti to "protect its corporate interests;" the most important of which was insuring the repayment of loans the country took from American banks. Do you really want to travel that route again? Read the essay War is a Racket by the General that served in Haiti at that time.
Another solution is to decentralize the country. I propose we remove all or most services out of PAP. We should spread the government across different cities. Move the palace to Gonaives, lawmakers to Cap-Haitien, and Judicial to another city.
We should also delegate more responsibility to each department. We should adopt a system like the US and many others nations and install governors for each department. This will greatly ease the bottleneck of bureaucracy and inefficiency that is PAP.
Pop off a Hydrogen Bomb that will not damage the infrastructure but will wipe out the STUPID HAITIANS... repopulate the country once those stupid ignorant greedy savages are gone. The Haitians are so lazy, they don't even help to clear rubble when volunteers from America come to help out. They just sit around the tents watching or wanting to get paid. The Haitian government charges a 40% tax on relief supplies. The Haitians attacked the relief workers and told reporters to go... Nuke Im...
@stevenabb I do agree with you to a certain extent. The homeless people under the tent (some 1.5 million) are not helping clearing the rubbles. They just wait for their 3 square meals per day. Haitians have never been lazy. What they lack is motivation and direction. Even if the government is not going to pay them to remove the rubbles. They could have organized and remove whatever they can by hand. I was told that they were rubble removing equipment being held in customs...
@GmanZouk And once they remove the rubbles, where will they put it? How about the do-gooders leave the country, the UN occupiers leave the country, the profiteering NGOs who thrive off of poverty and disaster leave the country, the US stop meddling in Haitian affairs, and let sovereignty and autonomy take its course?
@GmanZouk This is what you get when you have the LOW CLASS HAITIANS in power. They are only there to make money. Most of them in the Haitian Parliament don't even have a high school diploma. They loathe the elite, better envy & jealous of the elite but they make the mass believe that the problems of Haiti lies solely in the hands of the small elite & of course the US while they are emptying the Haitian coffer. They are as corrupted as hell. No educated Haitian can get close to politics in Haiti.
@THEHAITIAN1804 Of course that's what they have been telling & obviously you believe it. When you have money & become rich then we will talk, better go to Haiti then let me know if it is in fact the Elite that is worse or the fact that Haiti has been governed by a BUNCH OF IGNORANT NEGROES. Go do the reseach & you will find out that ever since the beginning of Haiti most of its leaders have been LITERALLY IGNORANT NEGROES who really think running a country is as easy as riding a DONKEY!
@stevenabb I am not sure what the delay is all about. If it is red tape or corruption (bribery)...or if is the fault of the NGO's or lack of coordination with the so-called Haitian United Nations government. But when you have an emergency situation, you have to get your ass moving to get the country moving forward. With 80% of the population unemployed, after one year, all of the rubbles should have at least been removed. Did Haiti received all necessary rubble removal equipment? Who knows?
@stevenabb As far as 40% tax on relief supplies if that is true, that is pure corruption. Remember Haiti is under occupation...Who gets that money? I guess, if you do not grease the right palms...
@TruthdontneedDefense This is easier said then done. One of the reason's there aren't more businesses is because the country has constant instability. It seems something goes wrong every year. Every year Haiti seems to have either serious political issues or natural disasters. This is hardly a business environment. Fix those issues and the businesses will come.
@Xxsucram89xX But this guy mentions in one of his YouTube comments is because Haitians are too Black that is why they suffer, tat is why people do not invest completely ignoring the fact that Haiti is unstable and that he a bias, thank god he lives in DR lets hope him & his whole family cliam tehy are Dominicans not Haitians . now he has to tell me why other Black countries are doing so much better than DR, PUERTORICO , vENEZUELA ETC..
@bc2358 While your idea is great because it would open up the country and that is what Haiti really need. Haiti has been a closed country in comparison to its neighbour on the other side of the island. However, things that you produce should have import barriers. For example, rice, mango, coffee, beans, chicken, etc... why? Well, we know what happened when they lowered the barriers on rice at 3%. The U.S. dumped their cheap rice on Haiti and put our farmers out of business.
Well, I will be the first one to post a solution for Haiti. Haiti has a lot problems to deal with but the main problem is money. When people think about Haiti, they see the poorest country in the western hemisphere. But is Haiti really poor or is that they want you think? Haiti is rich! Rich in natural resources such as oil, bauxite, gold, uranium, copper, silver, limestone and marble. The problem is that Haiti does not have the technology nor the money to mine the said resources.
So, Haiti needs foreign companies to come and mine the minerals. The problem with the Haitian governments historically, is that people would pay them under the table and they would allow mining without benefits to the Haitian people. Now, it is worse because Haiti is under occupation via the UN and the current government is just for show (a puppet government) which leaves Haiti with no representation.
So, what is the solution? HAITIANS NEED TO KNOW THAT THE COUNTRY IS RICH IN MINERALS! Haiti needs a real government who cares about the welfare of its people. It needs to get out under the "peaceful" occupation from the UN. Foreign companies in Haiti are good as long as it is a win-win situation. Oil alone would be sufficient to set an infrastructure in Haiti. We need roads, electricity, water, etc...There are people eating mud cakes. No one should be eating dirt in a country rich in minerals!
Check Eurasian Minerals. It is one of the companies mining for gold in Haiti. Of course the UN provide them with security so that the Haitian people do not even know what is going on in that area (Massif du Nord). Of course, the Haitian government pretends they do not know what is going on and when you call the Bureau of Mines to ask them to see the contracts as a private citizen, they do not know what is going on. There are also 5 oil sites currently in Haiti. I have personally seen the sites.
For me, the UN and all the NGOs occupying Haiti would not be a problem if they actually were developing the country (building an infrastructure, airports, ports, hotels, roads, sewer system, schools, hospital, agriculture etc..). It would provide employment for the Haitian people. At least no one would be eating dirt. But they are not building an infrastructure for Haiti. Those multinationals are just taking and taking without giving back with the help of our weak gov. That's my beef!
@GmanZouk One is to put a cap or extremely limit the amount of NGO's into the country. NGO's are a HUGE problem for Haiti, they come with FREE FOOD, CLOTHES, HEALTHCARE, ETC. This only hurts the country more by giving them an incentive to do nothing. If food is free why would anyone buy from Haitian producers. This puts Haitian farmers out of business, and creates more poverty, by making the farmers poor and also dependent on the NGO's. The same principal applies to merchants and healthcare.
@Xxsucram89xX I would like to add the we should be giving the NGO's ultimatums. Instead of bringing bags of rice and water, we should instruct them to bring TOOLS and IDEAS. TOOLS to cultivate the land and to pump and filtrate water. And IDEAS to become self sufficient not reliant. This way Haitians will LEARN how to maintain themselves and also to reduce and eventually eliminate the need for NGO's. If the NGO's don't agree on the terms kick them out, after all it is our country.

Decentralize Haiti...Port au Prince cant hold 1/3rd of the population
Create infrastructure to make it easier to travel trough the mountainous terrain.
Rebuild and expand the railroads.
Major expenditure on education and security
Cleaning and developing miserable axillary cities like Cite Sole
Governmental grass roots projects in those cities
Reintroduction of the Haitian diaspora...haiti has suffered an intense brain drain
and this could be controversial but isolation and strict imposing govt
