Haiti's Food Crisis

How could a country that was once considered to have precious land, end up living through these harsh realities? Haiti IS the reality for many people living day by day with very little food (if it can even be considered food) and little social, medical and financial aid to survive every day that goes by. This people need greater accessibility to food that is being grown and sold in their country, they have the right to the basic necessities of life such as food and CLEAN water. As a country with some of the richest soils in the agricultural world, what is lacking is the education of its people to cultivate the land in a sustainable and economical way. The problem is politics, there is no support for many of the local farmers to prosper. Haiti as a nation needs to educate, motivate and fight for their rights as human beings!
