The Clinton Led US Swindling of Haiti

Port du Prince Cathedral Post-2010 Earthquake Ruins

That is the title I would give to a recent article in The Guardian which outlines how the Clintons used Haiti to further their own interests, at the rate of many millions of dollars. The post-earthquake US policies in Haiti over the past decade, largely led by the Clintons, have served US interests and done great further harm to Haiti. Haiti has gotten practically none of the money or other help which was supposedly for Haiti. Farms were destroyed and people displaced, thus depriving them of their only livelihood, and nothing has been done to fill the breach.
