What you see and what is not ... anarcho-capitalism in Haiti Facebook

What you see in Haiti is : chaos, war of all against all, "anarchy" (in the vulgar sense, not etymological, the word).

And so the bad economists even say:

"There was never a state in Haiti. Now, there nothing. "

"See?" The man is a wolf to man. We need to state! "

However, there are also things are not .

And the good economist, as saying Frederic Bastiat, is that he sees ... but not seen.

----???

So there ever been? First it was French slave colony. Then British protectorate. Later independent country. After a small empire. Then occupied by the Yankees. Then dictatorship. After Republic democratic. Up to now, failed state ...

But no ... as the fool, never had been.

However, there has always been been in Haiti (at least since 1517). But will it be, perhaps, he was always a weak state, a state always about to collapse, and only needed to move a little ground to finish falling? It is possible, but doubtful. Haiti 40 years ago was still a dictatorship ... And dictatorships are not usually soft and relaxed discipline. There is talk of 30 000 people killed by Francois Duvalier ...

But not only the state, as visible and monstrous, which struck Haiti long before the earthquake of 2010. Also statism, the state in its spiritual form, the state "is not" ... or are not, or sometimes not want to see, ill economists ... he has also done its part. Thomas L Knapp has demonstrated the enormous weight that Haiti still had been invisible in daily life and economy of the Haitians. The ordinary Haiti had to pay money for inflation, had to pay money corruption and had to pay in advance the cost of opening a business in Haiti. Having a government would not cost the Haitian marking 9.4% of GDP statistics, but more ... I do not know if you can calculate, but according to Knapp, reaches 50% of GDP. With so much to pay, the ordinary Haitian in his pocket he had very little money to strengthen the foundations of their homes and prevent a collapse, very little money to eat better and have supplies in case there is a sudden, very little money for education more and turn their country into the "civilized and law abiding" are not falling from the mouths of bad economists.

Statism, which economists see no evil, is what is behind the current chaos in Haiti. But ask them to see it is asking too much. They prefer the easy and common places Hobbesianism.
