Africa can only be saved with the destruction of SOCIALISM. Socialism is the root cause of poverty and starvation. It is socialists who punish the productive and reward the lazy , which quite naturally results in less production.Socialists are EVIL.

It can't be saved. It needs to be burned to the ground and rebuilt.

The only way to save Africa is through re-colonization, but who'd want that third-world pisshole now?

The two guests with which he spoke were the black socialist fool, Bill Fletcher, Jr.* (photo at right) of the TransAfrica Forum, and, both last and best, a brilliant man who is new to me. His name is Dr. George Ayittey (ee-ah-tay), He is not an African-American.

Hey that's not fair, putting an economist up aginst an ideologue. And someone who is ACTUALLY from africa,

Just leave the rat hole alone. Africa has existed for thousands of years. In ten years there will be nothing to worry about. They will have ate up the whole continant. Just like the indians of this country would have, if the euros had come a hundred years later than they did!!!!

The eager, satisfied face of the token Hispanic, Suarez, began to sag, however, when the real, actual, bona fide African, Mr. Ayittey, began to speak. (Mr. Fletcher’s face turned white with shock as the blood drained from it.)

Bump!

April 9, 2002 - Senegalese Loner Works to Build Africa, His Way***"I've never seen a country develop itself through aid or credit," said Mr. Wade, who was trained as an economist in Senegal and at the Sorbonne. "Countries that have developed - in Europe, America, Japan, Asian countries like Taiwan, Korea and Singapore - have all believed in free markets. There is no mystery there. Africa took the wrong road after independence."***

April 19, 2002 - Zimbabwe's sole African critic, Senegalese***Wade, a 76-year-old leader elected in 2000 after more than two decades in opposition, emerged as the only African leader to condemn the vote. Last summer, he stood nearly as alone among African leaders in dismissing the idea of European reparation for past African enslavement - asking if his own family, former slave-holders like many in Africa, should also pay. On Zimbabwe, he said Friday, "For me, my problem is: Did the people of Zimbabwe express their free choice of election? My answer is 'no.'"

His remarks came as Wade emerged from a week in which he spearheaded African leaders' successful mediation of Madagascar's violent three-month election impasse. After three days of room-to-room shuttling by himself and four other presidents in a Dakar hotel, Madagascar's two rival presidents agreed to a temporary power-sharing plan. "Something very important on that is the consideration Africans have for elder persons," he said of his own role in that effort. "There are very few people who speak frankly, and generally we succeed," he said. The peace-making came on the sidelines of an African leaders' summit in which heads of state laid strategy for a promised massive infusion of Western aid.

Wade broke from one key provision of African leaders' proposal for encouraging good government among themselves - a demand of the wealthy Group of Eight nations promising the aid. The proposal, endorsed by influential Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo, calls for a "peer review" in which African leaders themselves keep leaders like Zimbabwe's president in line. "Maybe if there is a problem, they call the head of state ... and maybe scold him," he said. "I am not very optimistic for the good functioning of the system," he said. "In general, we have little capacity to put pressure on a president."***

You see, the words of Mr Ayittey are true. Truth is death to liberals. Fletcher and Suarez know that if Mr. Ayittey’s advice is followed, sensible reforms will take place in Africa. People will have enough to eat, behavior that encourages AIDS will be discouraged, the Christian religion, Africa’s largest, will be allowed to flourish, mass slaughters of whites will cease, children will live in peaceful, prosperous villages and have the opportunity to get an education. Worst of all, socialism will be gone from the land.

God forbid that a tragedy of those proportions should be allowed.

A tragedy indeed. We wouldn't want those poor africans exposed to a system that actually allows for them to live without subsidy!!!

My vote would be for them to go to H#$$ in their own filth. Africa is ruined, let them do whatever it is they are going to do. Either they want to survive or they don't. Survival of the fittest as far as I am concerned. Darwinism to the extreme.

The despots and their countries will disapear, and the free market countries will prosper. End of story, and the free market countries will move into the collapsed countries and then they will flourish. I say let it happen. And for us to stay the heck out of it.

Africa is going to return to it's pre-colonization roots and a lot of people are going to die. And there is not much we can do about it even if we wished. We can help try and care for the epidemics and broker peace deals between warring tribes and even send food but the die is already cast.

How was America saved? By hard work, revolution, and the undergirding principles of western civilization. I think the Africans should be able to figure out how to do it, too. I understand there are a lot of books. Maybe if they read a few of Adam Smith's and threw away the primers for failed systems, such as Marxism. You don't become a concert pianist by studying phrenology.

and kept in office a monstrous dictator who supported the rape of the nation's agricultural community.

It seems Marxism is alive and well.

It's time to step back and let Mother Nature deal with Africa.
