https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restavek Is a fun one. People risk their lives fleeing Haiti for a reason.
Full flights leave from the U.S. to Haiti on a daily basis, v.s the very small amount that risk their lives to get here, when was the last time you heard of a boat full of refugees trying to get to the U.S.?
What Haiti doesn't have are social programs. There's no welfare, no social security, no foster care, Haiti is about being on that grind, no matter if you're young, old or crippled, Haitians are very hard working people. That being said My mother-in-law is Haitian, she personally has around 15 people living at her house, that do housework for room and board.
There was a time in England where kids as young as 4 swept chimneys, so every country has been a "shithole" at one point or another, and Haiti has only been recognized as country for just under 160 years.
America built it's wealth off of free African Labor, If reparations were to be paid, it is estimated the U.S. would owe 14 trillion dollars as stated in a Newsweek article.
So slavery is the only reason America is in the position it's in, without slavery America doesn't exist.
