The Dominican Republic is on the same damn island, also had a colonial history, had the same GDP per capita as Haiti until 1970, but now has 10x the GDP per capita as Haiti.
The USA are still meddling in Haiti[0], so don't discount their role into Haiti's current situation.
> The Dominican Republic is on the same damn island, also had a colonial history
Not just any colonial history: the USA invaded the Dominican Republic as well. Crazy how they can't refrain themselves from doing it over and over.
Now, comparing Haiti and Dominican Republic solely on the basis that both are on the same island and had a colonial history is too much of a simplification to mean anything, and to be fair verges on racist conclusions. Almost like you're implying that Haitians are inherently worse than Dominicans.
