what we learn from Zimbabwe (aka Rhodesia)

[socrates]

It was under British rule until 1980 in the name of Rhodesia, later it got independence changed the country name to Zimbabwe. Robert Mugabe became president, so far so good.

but in 1990 he introduced the land reforms by seizing white owned farm lands and given to blacks (robin hood governance), but those blacks who got the lands dont know how to do farming which leads to plummeting of agricultural yields

in parallel Robert Mugabe gave permissions to print more money for military purposes/ veteran payments/ possible expansion campaigns..etc

finally all roads leads to a collapse of  the country economy 

here there are two great lessons every country should learn 

- first don't be a robin hood and try to do racial justice (immaturely) , taking some one job and giving it to someone 

- don’t print the money too much

Haha. Comparing US with Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 is nakkaki and nagalokaniki unantha teda undi. US dollar 💵 is still a very dominant currency and de facto trade currency of the world. America 🇺🇸 has world’s most powerful military. These two are enough for next few decades for US to dictate the world.

something similar happened in Uganda. Edi Amin ane dictator pushed out all Indians from their country. They were the business people. Valla businesses including supermarkets locals ki echadu. They failed terribly. Indians who moved back to India or UK thrived, where as Uganda still didnt recover from the fall out.

Hmm may be or may be not. I feel these people are hiding so many economical bokkal of this country to outside world. With the current trends on immigration, this country is slowly moving out of democracy which will make it isolated from other democratic nations
