I recently learned that Zimbabwe had an inflation rate of 89.7 sextillion percent (Is this even possible :O), prices double roughly once per minute.
And it was caused because of the land transfers of the early 2000's where they took land away from white minorities and gave it to black majority. Suddenly the "Breadbasket of South Africa" could not feed its population and was in famine for so many years.
This is interesting because I read in an old encyclopedia from the 1950's that was not politically correct that said that ignorance is the cause of most famines.
This is no longer a politically correct view but I think that Zimbabwe's troubles after it kicked out the whites farmers is because they were replaced with more ignorant farmers who could not use modern methods to produce food?
ISn't this what happened with Haiti? My 8th grade teacher said that it was slaves who rebelled but they did know how to run a country so they ruined their own country.
