And the countries from Africa especially are doing WHAT to turn their countries from socialized cesspools of crime, violence, genocide, hatred, disease, corruption & graft, into countries that people would actually want to live there. It is amazing how the golden period for Africa was the colonial era from 1850 - 1964. I was in the Congo from 1972-73 on a short term missions trip, and it was incredible how the Belgians had helped to make Congo a beautiful country, accessible with roads and well laid out villages. But the Belgians left in 1964 when Congo got its independence, and within just a few years, the jungle had reclaimed 90% of the roads & villages, and civil war & violence decimated the rest. The same can be said for South Africa and Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia, the bread basket & crown jewel of Africa). What a beautiful, rich continent to be turned into socialist nightmares & cesspools. So African countries, HEAL THYSELF and quit looking for handouts.

The African countries reverted to what they were for untold thousands of years before. Modern socialist theory just facilitated the change. After all, socialism is just another form of tribalism.
