- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1644-shock-opera/chapter/historical-context-of-haitian-debt-and-modern-labor.md

Haiti's current instability is often traced back to the "independence debt" imposed by France in 1825, which required the young republic to pay reparations for lost plantation property. This debt, which was not fully paid off until 1947, severely hampered the country's ability to build infrastructure and public services. Modern analysts suggest that the ongoing crisis may lead to "Temporary Protected Status" for Haitians to fill labor shortages in the Western service industry.
