The Herald (Harare)

THE diversity of the Zimbabwean economy has enabled the country to sustain itself under illegal sanctions that Western countries imposed as retribution for agrarian reforms to correct a colonial imbalance, the House of Assembly heard last week.

So long we continue to have stupid people like the author of this article, Zimbabwe's problems will never go away. I don't think your brains are housed in your head like everybody else's brain.They must be in your ass. You must have written this article from a Zinatha psychiatric ward.
Self-sustaining! What kind of foolishness is this? Why are you using foreign currency? Why are you importing foodstuff, and why are begging for help? Zimbabwe is a destitute as we speak right now. You are sick!
I'm sorry but I must comment on the Heralds article that is the biggest piece of tripe I have ever seen. I'm one of those Whites you Zims are so glad you drove out. When I left the Rhodesian Dollar was in the same price range of the Australian and Canadian Dollar. I left a cattle station that had 15,000 steers and 5,000 dairy cattle. That one station produced enough meat, milk and cheese for the entire country. We had running water, electricity 24/7 and medical facilities. None of this is available today in the nation that "can sustain itself." Rhodesia never asked foreign aid, it gave it. The three decades since 1980 have shown proof positive, Zim's can't farm, they can't manage businesses and on the whole they are a corrupt, dishonest society. All they can seem to do is talk, talk, talk,talk. Zimbabwe is a dead country with no hope for the future. The Herald says it's white, I say it's black, and history is on my side.
This article is as stupid as i have ever read!
How is billions of dollars worth of food and medical aid donated from around the world to keep Zimbabwe alive, "self-subsistance"????
