Sh*t gate thoughts

Hi All,

First thought:

Would you go off and live in El Salvador , Haiti and sub Sahara Africa, Zimbabwe, Eritrea , Sudan , Somaliland etc?

If not , then according to liberals , you're a racist.....

Second thought:

These places are extremely poor and have corrosive corrupt government. In the most extreme cases life is hobbsonian i.e. nasty , brutish and short. It is therefore no surprise that people who can want to get to the west for a better life. But the thing is that liberals don't get that the answer is not massive immigration from one continent to the next ,  but to promote good governance and government. This doesn't necessarily mean a European style liberal democracy. It means providing the minimums that any nation state provides for its people. The difference between a failed state and a state. Africa for one is a continent rich in raw materials and a capable people :  to suggest otherwise is indeed racist . It can and should prosper in its own. But it needs to ditch the corrupt rulers and find leaders who govern for all citizens. Look at Zimbabwe or Rhodesia. One minute a thriving agricultural and industrial powerhouse. Thirty years of tyranny, hyper inflation and plutocracy and it's a disaster zone....
