Trying to get an understanding of things while avoiding overblown and complex prose. Throw in a rant now and then. Throw in some fun stuff too. Click on the Archives on the right side to see it all. Click on pix to enlarge. I also have a picture blog at http://bill454.tumblr.com/ which is pix found on the web I liked.

Aid to Africa...Who gets it?
Robert Mugabe is the dictator of Zimbabwe. He has ruined the country's economy and looted it for himself and his supporters. Africa has many of the most corrupt governments in the world. Nigeria is notorious for total corruption of all public services.
A reporter observed this:
On a hot, dusty road a convoy of three black Mercedes luxury cars throw up a cloud of dust onto people walking who have no transportation. The government offfcials in the cars are part of the corrupt clique that rules the country. The people on the road refer to their government as "the men of the Mercedes".
