Mountains Beyond Mountains

Yesterday we read an article written by Paul Farmer, and today we started reading the book Mountains Beyond Mountains which relate a lot because both texts clearly state the issues that Haiti sufferes and how they are not getting the requested help. Based on the reading of these texts, we can conclude that Haiti is not getting help from the United States because they do not want to help them because if they wanted to they would make m0re misions and more things to help them but it is not the case. On the article by Farmer we can conclude that this is because Haiti has nothing that is interesting for the United States, like natural resources, for that reason they do not involve a lot and just appear to help to look good. Moreover, on the book it states that soldiers were sent to Haiti to make improvements but with insufficient tools, so how they want to make a difference if the people they send to help are not even well prepared for the job. The book also states: "... the American government's plan for fixing Haiti's economy,... would aid business interest but do nothing,..., to relieve the suffering of the average Haitian" (pg 5) clearly demostrating that their purposes are not to help but to get benefits from it.
