About one million Haitians now live in the Dominican Republic, but only about 10% of the Haitian laborers in the country are there legally, a condition that invites their exploitation by greedy employers. Cheap Haitian labor has become a substitute for less-skilled Dominican labor in a way that increases income inequalities, and puts a special burden on the country’s public finances and services, owing to lower tax revenues.
只要海地政府依然脆弱、海地经济继续腐烂，依靠向多米尼加共和国非法移民为生的犯罪团伙就会继续繁荣。 约有一百万海地民众现在生活在多米尼加，但只有约10%拥有合法的劳工资格，他们也因此成为贪婪雇主的剥削对象。 廉价的海地劳工已经取代了非技术型的多米尼加劳工，这在某种程度上扩大了收入不平等，降低了税收收入，致使国家公共财政和服务负担加重。
