Haiti as a member state in the United States? Should we offer them statehood? One question to ask is whether it would help Haiti rise from being a third-world nation. Look at Hawaii, and consider how advanced its economy is. Would it still be a backward nation if the U.S. had not taken it in? Does the situation differ in Haiti? Or, could it also expect a rise from poverty?
When the United States can share its benefits, perhaps it should. Haiti is a near-by nation. It's location makes it plausible that it could be a state. Caring for other people -- as we should be wont to do -- calls for us to consider offering Haiti statehood.
