Zimbabwe = Poverty

October 15th, 2008

Poverty and Zimbabwe are two indistinguishable things. Poverty is defined as the lack of sufficient money and/or material possessions for a life of moderate comfort. This definition trully applies to the people of Zimbabwe

Ladies and gentlemen, people of the whole universe, we are struggling in Zimbabwe.

Imagine life without water (a must resource for us to survive), power cuts, long lines (because saying long queue is an understatement).

There is little if any to distinguish between the upper class, the middle class, and the lower class. For those who are carrying different case studies about poverty, its impact in society, or in a country, please don’t waste your time looking at others because Zimbabwe is a good case.

Imagine inflation at that assumed 130 million percent, food crisis and disease outbreaks. Hey… Zimbabwe is another country that is going to break records and records. I think African and Universal leaders should chip in and help before the worst comes to the worst.

    Yes, Zimbabwe = Poverty, and is inching ever closer to becoming a failed state. And the man who allowed this to happen is at this very moment still arguing about ministries and unilaterally awarding himself control of both Defence and Home Affairs. And what for? So that he can defend a waste land, with five million people on the brink of starvation and in dire need of food aid. A man such as this must be both a melamaniac and a lunatic combined. The holocaust killed six million people by a lunatic. But that lunatic aimed his wrath at a perceived alien community. Mugabe wants to kill five million of his own people by a slow painful death. Some people might say that is even worse than Hitler.
