Africa's powerhouse powers on 

Zimbabwe's scumbag "President" Mugabe is hosting an "anti-colonial summit" of former African guerrillas and freedom fighters. "An official from the ruling Zanu-PF party - itself once a guerrilla force - said the meeting would focus on Zimbabwe's moves to redistribute land."

...while what was once one of the richest countries in Africa is going down the toilet, with 70% unemployment, inflation at 526%, and chronic shortages of just about everything.

"[I]n a recent speech marking the 24th anniversary of Zimbabwe's independence from foreign rule, Mr Mugabe said the country's difficulties stemmed from a Western plot to re-colonise it."

The nefarious Western influence that is sabotaging Zimbabwe's economy is called socialism; a disease that Mugabe had picked up in his youth. Isn't it time to end the neo-colonisation of Africa by failed economic theories of dead white males like Marx?
