And probably have those chainsaw attachments!
Back then, people there at least had jobs and food on the table.
I’m not sure that the farmers and others who worked hard to make a bit of civilization and productivity happen - thought they were prancing about a “fun park”.
...except when compared to Zimbabwe.
