They need the farmers back or else they starve

[Rebelbase]

Reparations to the victims who are still alive. That’s the way you do it.

[ConservativeMind]

“Please white farmers, come back to work the land. Here’s some money to buy it all back...”

[Billthedrill]

Keep the change.

[Freee-dame]

“Land reform” that changes your country from being the breadbasket of Africa to a country that cannot even feed its own people. I wonder if this is a “fairness” policy that some would like in the USA.

[Wilhelm Tell]

The bad news: $3.5 billion Zim dollars will only buy one new wheelbarrow.

[rktman]

Kathy Buckles? Anyone. I think that was the FReeper handle.

A lot of those farmers were welcomed into Zambia, and were doing quite well, perhaps that explains the change of heart.

[Eagles6]

The check is in the mail.

They must have thought everything magically grew without any work..Boy were the black farmers surprised......Any white farmer would be nuts to go there again....They could turn any time and you end up dead....

[facedown]

With what?

[CharleysPride]

$3.5 Billion.

LOL

In what currency, pray tell?

[hadrian]

[Caipirabob]

Gold, land or other tangible assets.

Nothing else is acceptable from this filth.

[SkyDancer]

About a dollar fifty in their money per farmer.

[kaehurowing]

$3.5 billion?

If that’s in Zimbabwe dollars it’s worth like seventy-five cents.

[Zhang Fei]

Typical self-licking ice cream cone proposal floated by cargo cult regimes. The farmers are supposed to help fleece bond investors into providing the capital with which to compensate themselves, presumably via personal loan guarantees. The current rulers of Rhodesia appear to have gotten their knowledge of sovereign debt raising from their better-known counterparts in Nigeria.

[ Two decades ago Mugabe’s government carried out at times violent evictions of 4,500 white farmers and redistributed the land to around 300,000 Black families, arguing it was redressing colonial land imbalances. ]

So, how’d that eventual starvation work out? Not too well, eh?

[RetiredArmy]

I would not count my billions until they were officially in the bank account.
