By all accounts, Firestones huge farm apparently the largest contiguous rubber-tree farm on Earth is a paradise compared with the destitution and havoc across the rest of war-torn Liberia. In a country where children walk to school over muddy paths, high-school students here board big yellow school buses, winding over country roads, the Journal reported. Electricity flows from a private dam. Water towers, telephone poles, speed-limit signs and brick homes all exceedingly rare in tropical Africa stare out over mowed hillsides that resemble the landscape outside Nashville, Tenn., where Firestones head office is based. It's called the benefits of WESTERN CIVILIZATION, for any liberal pukes who might be listening in.
