and pay off debt lmao
Like,
there are a large number of african countries who export more agricultural product than they take in in the form of food aid
Clearly not to maintain the state, since corruption, crime, and insurgent warlords are common.
No, maintain the state as in maintain those players involved in corruption
and they fight off warlords
To pay off debts, most african countries just take out even BIGGER loans.
to pay off those debts
and to attract more investment
yes
they take out loans to get investors to come hoping the investments will stick, boost the economy
and allow them to make profit to pay debts
and they dont
or,
Pic related is zimbabwe, this is how bad it has gotten over there.
yes I know
but agian
its been the prevailing order since the 70s
its either on purpose as a byproduct of neoliberalism,
or its a terrible failure of economic policy from the western world
in which case, they're profiting heavily from an accident
why are you saying nope
what does that have to do with what i said.
I know mugabe had a coup,
but thats a bit random dont you think?
also oof typing on this laptop is weird
I am saying that they AREN'T the prevailing order, there is no order in africa!
No you scroob
the neoliberal policy
the issue you're highlighting that we give a shit load of money to africa
and take a shitload out
that order,
has been around
since the 70s
Yes, and look at where it has gotten us.
Idc about what order you think comes from the state and therefore isnt there because mugabes coup
entirely random
my point is we take a shit load of money from the third world
and when we give back a fraction people like you complain
Absolutely nowhere, with africa being 100X worse than it was in the 70's.
