Let’s see...

Guy #1 uses proven farming methods and decades of hard work, learning from success and failure over the years, and is rewarded with vastly more successful years than not.

Guy #2 is handed the farm but has no experience outside a family garden. In the good years he has marginal results and marginal productivity. In the bad years there is no crop.

Lesson - Equality of opportunity does not ensure equality of outcome.

Positive results cannot be legislated.

I’m not buying the accuracy of the IQ map (or the usefulness of IQ either).

The highest IQ in Deep Purple includes the NorKs. No way highest IQ.

"I’ll just bet there were a couple of White Farmers who took him up on the offer. Some farmers love that lifestyle, and consider any chance to resume their work is bigger than Mugabe. The smarter ones probably went to other areas of Africa. You cannot trust Mugabe."

Don't trust them.

South Africa is now threatening to seize White owned farms without restitution.

I was going to point out that is why the democrat party of evil wants more flexibility in the Constitution, but went with the singular point.

If I were a farmer I would not get near Zimbabwe. Maybe the State Department could send James Taylor to sing “You’ve Got A Friend” to Mugabe instead.

Higher than Ian Gillian or Richie Blackmore?

What’s become of the ChiCom agri-businesses that he invited in to run the farms?

Did the slave labor concept not go over to well?

Who needs to know how to farm when you can just eat the seads, sell the tractors, and rip out the irrigation pipe for scrap metal?

Oh, I had to search for those names. Musical thoughts never crossed my mind. (I’m illiterate about Sports and certain genre of music.)

The phrase did describe the pic? hee hee hee

A few selected white farmers will be granted security of tenure on farms regarded to be ‘of strategic economic importance.’

LOL - this is code for "Mugabe and his corrupt black 'elite' henchmen - and select whores" don't want to stave to death...

I recall we used to get Zimbabwe updates every few months from a woman named Buckles. For the life of me I couldn’t understand why her family stuck it out there as long as they did.
Don’t know if she was a Freeper or simply letters posted from another source.

Excellent quote. No wonder Obama and the Clintons couldn’t make much use of it except to hurt their enemies.

I read that maybe the British government abandoned the white Rhodesian farmers. The media stopped doing horror stories on Mugabe a long time ago. It is like they do not want people to see what is going on. Do you know if some of the British nobility control the chrome mining in Zimbabwe? It seems like the British want Zimbabwe now for it’s mineral wealth with Mugabe as the puppet government.

Make no mistake, bo would have stolen land owned by whites in the blink of an eye if he thought he could get away with it.

Cruise missiles were designed with guys like Mugabe in mind.
