The story told in the film "Life and Debt" shows the struggle to survive that Jamaican citizens face due to the troubling economic situation in Jamaica. It is not impossible to see when you visit the island that there is a major break in the distribution of wealth, all of the money in Jamaica is in toursim, which is predominantly owned by foreign companies. It is heartbreaking to see that the troubling status of the Jamaican citizen is because of the U.S. and other foreign countries economic agendas. From the outside looking in Jamaica's economic problems seem easily fixable, by taxing exports and by taxing imported of foods that can be produced within the country.
It sad to see that the rest of the world acts as though they are offering help, when they are intentionally running another country into the ground for their own benefit.
