socialism is ingrained into their minds
same with south Americans
If you don't try capitalism capitalism can't save you
This is just notruefeminism
Indians too
These were literal socialist countries
S ocialists who deny the market aren't true capitalists
Were. Before you were born.
Own the failures and allow some nuance ffs. You might even be right overall.
Own the failures of socialist nations like Zimbabwe ?
Own Cameroon.
Own Comoros.
do they have ethnic crisis
Ancaps lol.
Please explain relevance.
because, it's not the fault of colonialism that they aren't developing now
The economy of Cameroon was one of the most prosperous in Africa for a quarter of a century after independence. The drop in commodity prices for its principal exports —petroleum, cocoa, coffee, and cotton — in the mid-1980s, combined with an overvalued currency and economic mismanagement, led to a decade-long recession. Real per capita GDP fell by more than 60% from 1986 to 1994. The current account and fiscal deficits widened, and foreign debt grew. Yet because of its oil reserves and favorable agricultural conditions, Cameroon still has one of the best-endowed primary commodity economies in sub-Saharan Africa.[15]
doesn't sound the worst
ethnic crisis in africa is not a colonialist construct
I am not blaming colonialism for present day problems
Recent signs, however, are encouraging. As of March 1998, Cameroon's fifth IMF program — a 3-year enhanced structural adjustment program approved in August 1997 — is on track. Cameroon has rescheduled its Paris Club debt at favorable terms. GDP has grown by about 5% a year beginning in 1995. There is cautious optimism that Cameroon is emerging from its long period of economic hardship.
Thank you capitalism
*Nobody gets to be reeling from socialism any more than one gets to reel from evil whitey colonizer.*
Yeah both are just as dumb an excuse.
Was my point.
The countries you mentioned, improved as much as they tried capitalism
Looks like the big problem was France
They looted a lot of their money
Still, they're doing better now
France, why do you do these things?
Almost everyone is doing better now. But the crises of the transitions must belong to the new system.
Armed revolutions are the worst way to do it course.
Ah Google explains all
They're a dictatorship which is looting their people with the help of France
That does tend to make capitalism more difficult
Yes and that's also capitalist.
Capitalism plus democracy is best
There is a lot of problems african countries need to solve.
This digressed magnificently.
