Haitis sanitation, sewage and plumbing are nonexistent for large pockets of people living in crowded conditions in the nations capital Port-au-Prince. It means that nearly forty tons of trash and sewage and debris literally wash into the Caribbean each year after the storm season. The result is that the large slums in Port-au-Prince like Cité Soleil bleed into the sea. People fashion houses and living quarters out of the mounds of trash and sewage that accumulate.

It creates havoc for fishermen who say the fish are getting smaller, are harder to find, and are sometimes poisoned by all the trash and nasty stuff seeping into the water. Also, the storm season each year contributes to the trash problem as rains form mudslides that wash everything into the ocean.

  • This is what happens when niggers run a country. They run it into the ground.

  • Actually there are real gold and oil reserves; however, these retarded Vandalobabookaris never have utilized them and never will. Only White expertise can make Haiti/Hispaniola bloom. Niggers only destroy.
