               this independent significance, and is used with the
               participles both of transitive and intransitive verbs
               as a device for expressing past time. Had is used,

      Usage: Hate is the generic word, and implies that one is
                  inflamed with extreme dislike. We abhor what is deeply
                  repugnant to our sensibilities or feelings. We detest
                  what contradicts so utterly our principles and moral
                  sentiments that we feel bound to lift up our voice
                  against it. What we abominate does equal violence to
                  our moral and religious sentiments. What we loathe is
                  offensive to our own nature, and excites unmingled
                  disgust. Our Savior is said to have hated the deeds of
                  the Nicolaitanes; his language shows that he loathed
                  the lukewarmness of the Laodiceans; he detested the
                  hypocrisy of the scribes and Pharisees; he abhorred
                  the suggestions of the tempter in the wilderness.

   Economy
  
   Overview: About 75% of the population live in abject poverty.
   Agriculture is mainly small-scale subsistence farming and employs
   two-thirds of the work force. The majority of the population does not
   have ready access to safe drinking water, adequate medical care, or
   sufficient food. The lack of employment opportunities remains one of
   the most critical problems facing the economy, along with soil erosion
   and political instability. International trade sanctions in response
   to the September 1991 coup against President ARISTIDE further damaged
   the economy. The restoration of President ARISTIDE, the lifting of
   sanctions in late 1994, and foreign aid will alleviate some economic
   problems. Haiti will continue to depend heavily on foreign aid.
