<Africa by Toto> #4.10
Did you hear that Bono of U2 was named one of the Persons of the Year last year for Time Magazine? Yeah, Bono, Bill and Malinda Gates were Persons of the Year for 2005. You know what Bono did that made him so fantastic? He advocated that Western countries forgive the debts of African nations. Debt relief always fascinates me when it comes up. African nations are run by kleptocracies. When you advocate debt relief, it normally means that you want to allow the thieves in a given African government a chance to get away with stealing the cash.
The correct solution for a poor country to become developed is to first get a noncorrupt government. It's impossible to develop in a Third World situation without the rule of law and a government that does not rob its people.
Ah, well, I didn't do a very good job tonight, because this format has basically and unequivocally failed. I described at the top of the program how it has to evolve. We shall see whether I can get the Management Team to approve the changes. If not, then you won't be hearing me anymore.
Talking to myself is kind of fun for a while but not this late at night. I really am having a hard time believing that you exist.
Well. that's it. MacKenzie Pequa the third will now take over and play an assorted and eclectic mix of music for the rest of the night.
Take it away, Mac.
