The eventual outcome of mass starvation to come in Zim has been obvious to a casual observer (me) for quite some time. Expect to see calls for a massive humanitarian relief effort soon.
At the risk of being accused of being a racist, from my experience of working in eastern Africa for almost two years, and that's working in the boonies, not in a city, I'd say the whole of Africa was much better off under colonialism. The argument is made that at least people are free now...I try to explain that without economic freedom there is no freedom...it's just a myth.
