Zimbabwe's Amazing List of Unbelievable Records... |
2006-12-11 |
[In the latest version of The Flag, a regular newsletter of the Flame Lily Association, they list the amazing achievements of Robert Mugabe. Take a look at the excellent effects of Mugabenomics. I used to think Colonials were capitalist scumbags stripping Africa of everything. But Mugabe's form of economics has me convinced that he knows the way forward for black Africa. Well done Uncle Bob, I hope the whole of Africa follows in your footstep - REALLY I *DO*. Jan] ZIMBABWE LEADS THE WORLD:- o Highest inflation at around 2000% WELL DONE ROBERT MUGABE! |

#12 OregonGuy I realize that you have/grow white truffles in Oregon but what's your problem with what Bright Pebbles said? One speculates that his family exited the nation they used to live in when the world did nothing about an Islamic Cannibal. When one of the world's poorest countries couldn't stomach all the bodies flowing down its rivers and invaded... the Cannibal got to live out his life in luxury in a mansion in SaudiLand. Of course that could be speculation on my side you fricking idiot. |

#11 Bright Pebbles You should not read books, magazines or newspapers. You should sell your computer. The money you save could be used towards finding a minder. I have no further advice. You should offer no more advice. At that point the internet will be in equilibrium, or steady state. If you ever open a book, newspaper or magazine the world will shift towards disequilibrium. It will be your fault and yours alone. If ever in the future the world has wars, pestilence or plague it will be your fault for reading. And don't get on the internet again. For that we will probably lose a city. And never confuse an opinion with fact again. Grow truffels and raise pigs. It is your want |

#8 Checked the CIA-World Factbook on Zimbabwe: Industries: mining (coal, gold, platinum, copper, nickel, tin, clay, numerous metallic and nonmetallic ores), steel; wood products, cement, chemicals, fertilizer, clothing and footwear, foodstuffs, beverages Agricultural: corn, cotton, tobacco, wheat, coffee, sugarcane, peanuts; sheep, goats, pigs Well, the Chicoms have been visiting and making nice, but is there enough for some good mercenaries to take care of business? Don't know. Goats and pigs---well, if there were no pigs, the Saudis would invest, heh. |

#7 Why is Mugabe still in power? The answer is another question: who is going to assume all the liabilities by kicking a$$ and taking names? What country or organization is going to take this humanitarian Chapter 11 country and pour billions of its own treasure into deposing the tyrants and rebuilding the country? They have good farmland, anything else of value? I hear no rumblings from the UN-ZimBob is their kinda guy, one of the brothers. The former colonial masters are not volunteering, they're broke. The people will not grab their pitchforks, macheties, and such stuff and take ZimBob down, so why should the rest of the world. If they did something, maybe others would help out. It is a tragedy, especially for children. I do not see any way out of the abyss, except for for the populace to do something for themselves. |

#3 Granted inflation is a major concern, but I would have to believe that the government's confiscation and subsequent mismanagement of most income producing sectors of the economy was the root cause of inflation and the death of the economy. |

#2 Highest inflation at around 2000% THEREFORE The world's fastest shrinking economy. Inflation kills the economy THAT'S WHY you should care about the UK and US's massive monetary inflation. |
