March on to freedom!

S.

your bong hours are becoming earlier every day.

What an example? We should follow his lead and not pay our debt...

here we go with the populist shit... i'll bet he wins too

Carlos, i am afraid you could be right. he is leading popular polls right now, although you and i both know that elections could turn on a dime.

Oh, Lord.

And do not pay your electricity bill either, we politicians don't.

Losers.

"and I’m going to create the conditions to generate jobs that benefit youngsters"

And when asked how all he could say is Duh.

Keep the majority of the populace ignorant and this sounds plausible.

As an old American friend would say, this guy is "un pollo loco".

Where is Jimharrintong to comment on this article as he is rulling for Hipolito

May God have mercy on us if Mejia wins the upcoming elections...

The problem is that this message has an appeal to some people ..I should imagine the farmers would be all behind Mejia .Thankfully they are a small number and most Dominicans would see this piece of pork barrelling as totally ludicrous ..as Dreads wrote ..what other legal debts will Mejia urge the people to not pay

OMG!! I KNOW THIS GUY'S AN IDIOT, BUT IS HE CRAZY TOO????
This meat head is setting a dangerous precedent! Building the foundation for anarchy and lawlessness!!

I hope to heaven he does not get another chance to destroy our nation as he did once before. Anyone but him, if not, .....E PA 'TRAZ K VAMO!! Hay cooooño!

My dream for my country is that we can erradicate corruption, teach our people how to be patriotic again and maybe then people like Mejia will not get a chance to destroy our economy and bring down the image of the Dominican Republic.

El BURRO de Gurabo.

What an idiot.

If this BURRO wins, and does this, we should all hold him accountable for giving away the people's money.

El burro de Gurabo= the jackass from gurabo. Josean aka JH llego PUPU.

Ay Dios Mio! Why are most here surprised that a candidate for PRD is an imbecile, a buffoon?

We (RD) are just 2 elections away from becoming haiti. lest we wake up the populace, which
is gonna be difficult when they are more and more of haitian descent,,can you say catch 22?

Agree with those who view this as some low populous nonsense that if acted upon will only serve to extend the disingenuous and corrupting practices that modernization is thought to correct.

To those who say this is right, one question:

How would such policy decisions, rescinding debts, help the Dominican Republic's modernization?

He really wants to set the good example. If you do not like your debt, don't pay. It is the mantra of his government. Heaven forbid if he gets elected. The IMF and other lenders will keep more than an arm's distance from his government.

I am a PRDer, but this guys is PHUCKING CLOWN!!!

Que Maldito PAYASO!!!

What a waste of 4-years the next few are going to be with Danilo and HIpolito as our only choices.

We'll have to vote for the lesser of two evils. What a disgrace the PRD leadership has become.

Alot of farm people outside of SD

Many of you guys are cynical and stupid!

The US is proposing to cancel part of the debt of millions of house owners just now and reduce interest rates to below 4%. Also introduce payment holidays.

Deralict farms just because the the price of fertilizer and tractor fuel has gone up and the government hasn't got a price support mechanisim in place makes sense only to complete idiots some of whom are previous posters,

Meanwhile the country has to import food.

S.

Sigh.

GeeWhizMiller261,

Just like Obama huh ! Only on the Chinese debt....... loaning more and more and more until it possibly will never get paid.

ABC123,

In the United Wild Kingdom it's.......we deserve more and more and more or we'll riot, burn, loot, steal and rob......or else !

_________________________________________________________________________

This nothing but a economic collapse then a take over.....for what I might ask ?

DirestorioDominicano

I agree. Scary stuff huh !

abc your logic escapes me ..the government in the USA is cancelling some of the debt and reducing some interest rates ..and so you think it follows that a Presidential candidate who is not in government should tell farmers to break the law. I can not see the logical sequence

Ricardolito,

That's it.....he has no logic, he's just agreeing to twist the DR's economic system.

Ricardolito...i thought that you were a smart guy. now you go associating logic withABC? this bonghead fails to understand the difference between a country cancelling the debt of another, and a country taking a renegade step to default on debt. i can just see the guys at the World Bank and the IADB, and the IMF, sending a limo for him when he goes to negotiate a standby agreement.

i decided not to, Blutarsky, since i am very careful about the company i like to be associated with. since i know that you are a closet Mejia supporter, i am keeping a respectable distance.

This explains the delay in my chutney

bueno mi gente yo se que nosotros somos "mala paga" pero esto ya esta cruzando la linea. i know the end of the world is on december 2012 but dominicans are gonna get a head start with it ending in august 2012

ABC123,
"March on to freedom" you mean the freedom to riot, loot and burn just like in the United Wild Kingdom only in the DR you and many of your friends would be dodging flying objects.

Stay in the UWK and join your happy bunch of rioters, looters and arsonist.

And what happens when those same famers need to borrow more money at a later date?

This guy is a nut!

This is only an example of the way he is going to ruin the country.

In Nicaragua, President Ortega told the agricultural sector to not repay their loans. The result of that was that the banking system stopped lending money to the agricultural sector, preferring to lend for commercial loans (mortgages and cars). The agricultural sector has enough trouble obtaining credit - it does not need a "no pago" reputation, which would destroy all access to credit.

Chuckiii,

Thank you for printing fact.

ABC123 would like nothing better then to see the DR go down hill the United Wild Kingdom....next stop the Cuban route.

The only difference between Hipo and Leo is that Hipo says what he thinks and he really does it. Leo is doing the same favor to his supporters all the time without mantioning it publicly. DR is the country with most public employees but with the worst public services which means that there are thousands of people on the payroll who have never entered their offices :)

End of the line is that no matter who wins the country loses. As long as the corruption rules this country it really doesn't matter who gets elected.

What if......as a show of real force against corruption on the next election NOBODY VOTED ?

In case you hadn't noticed UK has 'AAA' credit rating.
Riots are part of history and have often led to political change.

The example of God instigating plagues in Egypt to bring about desired action by rulers ; letting the children or Israel go ; has been followed by oppressed peoples taking direct action throughout history.

A commentator on the UK riots and the solution.
We need the courage to be rational and not vengeful in eliminating those causes: inequality, poor urban environments, underemployment. We need empathy and humanity to deal with those people who are the symptom of our problems in a way that will rehabilitate rather than further victimise them.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/comment....g/24/riots-reason-not-rage-norway

If the farmers are having such problems that they don't repay the loans as part of direct action then the underlying causes need to be analysed and solutions sought.

S.

ignoring mindless people? destructive scalawags don't have a right to be listened to.
loud blabbermouth, lacking courage and missing a back-bone

does any one prize civlized behavior?
dump your garbage now.

remember before u vote 4 anyone that education is more illusory then real in the dr.

this combination of being treated as children by the autocrats and as backward by the rest of the world. guess many most feel a deep humiliation.
how in the world does any one in the dr even think for one minute about this hippo idiot as pres of the dr again?
are their no values, any aspirations, are their no real men with courage left in the dr?

baninter, banco mercantil, bancredito,
20% of the dr's gdp?
vice president of the so-called supreme court know to take bribes?

a vote for the hippo.and
the investors will flock to the dr.

Right, Hipo will create jobs like anually breaking up perfectly good sidewalks so that they can be replaced again, folks this is not progress it's socialism. It only works untill someone elses money runs out.

so that is what socialism is...darn, it took me all these years to find out.

I'm reading this and I cannot believe it. This retarded, sub-human, brain dead presidential candidate is nuts. He has totally lost it. Who the hell will invest in a country where a presidential candidate is telling their people - don't pay for this or that...I will handle your DEBT

Are you ppl out of your minds? Are we Dominicans that stupid? I tell you..it's really hard and embarassing to be Dominican where you hear such statements from a supposedly presidential candidate.

This man is totally loony, ready to be taken to a mad house together with all his followers. That's it!! We as Dominican should demand all these retards to be flown to a deserted island so they can eat one another.

No investor will ever touch Dominican P.O.S Republic if this man touches that seat again. Worse part is there will max exodus of Dominicans to anything but Haiti. Nonetheless, I hope PR, Jamaica, Cuba, and U.S.A deports them as soon as they touch any foreign soil for voting for this vermin P.O.S

I meant to say, specially those who vote for Hippo-Lame-Retard-oxi-moron Loco!!

Ireland may have to write off 10 billion in debt. I don''t see any problem in a small country writing off a small amount of farm debt. Its only a short time till a new government gets elected.
After all the farmers produce a valuable service producing food and inputs ( gasoline, fertilizer etc. ) have risen at an unprecedented rate due to huge uncontrolled demand from the US.
"
From Debt forgiveness is inevitable, accept it


Billions in mortgage debt will have to be written off as irrecoverable, which of course means debt forgiveness. Kelly’s figure excludes unsecured consumer debt. The central bank has pencilled in €2.2bn in losses

Sounds like this politician is a realist wanting to preserve family life on the farm.

Actually of course credit card companies in the US write off billions in debt and people in trouble are advised by firms that advertise on TV to stop paying or only pay off

a proportion.

S.

ABC, is it that boring in Las Terrenas that you can find nothing better to occupy your free moments than posting absolute rubbish, ALL THE TIME?

You haven't got time - you spend your time eating monster meals!

S.

Hern and abc. ... your comments are interesting ... an explanation of the strategy the opposition has for all farmers would be a better transparency position then just the rice growers not paying the debt.

Strongest position would be to tell the farmers to continue paying on the debt and if papa is elected he could then cancel the debt and retroactively refund debt payments back to the farmers say for two years. ... leverage the law and rules politically don't undermine the very system itself. ...

If you have no money how do you repay debt - sell the land or commit suicide as many farmers throughout the World have done?
F thanks for your contribution!

S.

Federico D, here is my take on the matter, for what it is worth. Hippo retains the option to renegotiate the debt, or try to have it forgiven, through proper, orthodox channels. there is nothing wrong with that. however, to state publicly, to a very gullible and malleable population, that they should dishonor their obligations, in a renegade gambit, undermines whatever little personal discipline there is in this country, and, Lord knows, it is in very short supply.

Abc and dread. ... these rice farmers are to be commended for being organized. ... this same capability could be leveraged by other groups ... the fact that the candidate reacted is worthy of note. ... just not in the way that matches the interests of all the parties. ..

Federico, Lord knows we have enough people in this land who do not believe in paying their debts. on a personal note, i would never lend a Dominican a peso, because getting it back is just too onerous a chore. there is always an excuse, or it is manana. a rent a car company overcharged me 70 dollars once, and i paid the entire bill before we found the mistake. they agreed i was right, but they never paid me my money, even though i took the matter to the tourism department. so, here we have a presidential candidate encouraging guys who are probably deadbeats to begin with, to dishonor their debts....making it official. i can see the IMF firing off an invitation to come in for a loan.
