President Obama Drops Haiti's Debt - Essence.com


I was just wondering with the economy the way it is 15 Million Americans on Unemployment and Millions of Americans are on the break of losing their homes.

Can we really afford to wipe out debt at this time and age?

Why is their such a hoop la when it comes to extending Unemployment Benefits to Millions of Americans?

Can Millions of Americans be debt free of paying their mortgage's or students loans today because of the economy crisis(people no longer can pay their statements)?

Haiti is poor because White people are racist.

If you don't see that, then you are racist too.

Ha....actually the debt was used as punishment for overthrowing the french and unraveling of slavery in the western hemisphere...I wish they would make a movie about that....We can either support are neighbors and show them the way to healthy balance of democracy and socialism or let them live in perpetual poverty and dictatorship/chaos....unless you enjoy watching fellow humans eat "dirt cookies" for dinner

On the other hand, did you have a solution for Haiti to be able to pay off a debt of $828 million?

Haiti will never pay it back..it's a loss. Chalk it up as a "bailout" that won't get repaid.
