The definition of monger does not carry within it the implication of involvement with prostitutes. Adding the word whore in front of monger is a much needed clarification to those who allegedly can save Sosua.
If there are 500 whore mongers in Sosua, as someone above mentioned, spending a total of $750,000 US per month as another mentioned above, that would be a measly $50 a day per whore monger. At total that is currently about 43,500,000 pesos. 4,350 people could get 10,000 pesos per month if all of that money trickled down to them.
Let us say the mongers on average spent 4 times that amount, $200 each and every day year round, that would mean 17,400 people could eat rice and beans off that money. Yet there are 50,000 to 60,000 people in Sosua.
To save even a third of Sosua so they had enough money to just barely live at $10,000 RD per month, 500 mongers would have to spend $200 US daily every day of the year just so that 17,400 people could just barely survive. Surely there must be far more than only 500 wore mongers in Sosua year round?
Could those whore mongers save one part of Pedro Clisante with that money? Sure, no problem.
