THE BIG COLONIALIST LIE STILL THRIVES

The top ten economies of the World are the USA, China, Japan, India, Germany, Russia, UK, France, Brazil and Italy. The USA and UK as the centers of the capitalist ideology but both have welfare schemes meant to cushion their citizens and industries in case of severe economic declines beyond individual control. This is particularly true for their industries and agriculture where they routinely intervene to make them competitive so that they don't lose our to the rest of the world. They have subsidized medical care, housing, education, etc meant to cushion their citizens. On the other hand China and Russia profess communism and have some of the most sophisticated technologies in the world. Germany, Japan, Brazil, France and Italy have welfare schemes and strong socialist parties that keep the government in check when there is too much incline to harmful capitalist tendencies. It is through the socialist party and socialist Prime Ministers such Nehru and Shastri that India initiated the Green Revolution and became self sufficient in food to feed a population equal to that of Africa. With all the above, former colonialists and imperialists through their Messenger Boys from the World Bank and IMF have ensured that communism or socialism doesn't take root in Africa. Any intention to intervene either in agriculture or industry by African governments is resisted by the imperialists as detrimental to the economy. What crap! Therefore, the despotic African rulers take advantage of this "friendly" advise to milk his countries dry and fritter the fortunes to the imperialist Bank outside the country for safekeeping. This is why you find that it's only in Africa where leaders own more wealth and land than their own countries (pun intended) in the name of democratic and capitalist forms of governance!
Traditionally, Africans worked together to produce food and create wealth for their communities and families. Today, if one wanted to see the fruits of communism/socialism at micro-level, you need not go further than your own mother, just look at the "merry-go-rounds" and "Chamas" run by our womenfolk which are very successful due to economies of scale. If those women had followed capitalist ideologies, most probably some families would starve to death. however,there is no such thing as pure capitalism or communism but our former colonial masters have ensured that we pursue capitalism so that we are not able to properly utilize the economies of scale to build large resources, enough to get us out of the poverty trap. The big lesson to Africans should have been, had capitalism which we have followed been good, then we could all have been rich enough to afford junkets to outer space instead of dying of treatable illnesses like malaria. But the imperialists know to well that, only fickle and soft brains of Africans, will believe their crap.
Therefore, it's not until we come out of our present trance, where we continue to be mesmerized by western religion and capitalism, shall we realize our folly of having been duped for too long by the colonialist who has pretended to be our benefactor, when he is actually a blood-sucking liar. Communism and socialism has never retarded human progress but lies particularly to Africans from colonialists have!
