"Some animals are more equal than others"

During the years I have often reverted to this novel by George Orwell, Animal Farm. For those of you who have never read it, I can summerize it as follows: The animals on a farm oust its "owners" the farmer and his family and take over the day to day running of the farm. Very soon, the revolution is hijacked by the pigs on the farm that start to oppress all the other animals. Not long after, the pigs start dressing up in the farmers clothes, eating his food and drinking his wine behind locked doors. The other animals peek in at the windows at their nightly feast. This describes the events in our country once again.

The answer is blowing in the wind

Supply and demand

L$187.6225/US$1.00 The more demand for any product, the more will be the price of it. The less the supply of something, the more the price. These are the two major facts in economic theory. The important lesson here is that to solve the problem you have to supply more of the scarce product. Or find a way to decrease the demand of the scarce product. There is unfortunately no piece of legislation that can do anything about this. Solution: Find a way to make the flow of US dollars into the country increase. Produce things that can be sold abroad to bring in foreign currency.

Unaccounted for but not hidden

Since the beginning of time, in this glourious land of Liberty, whenever someone happens upon any kind of funds that they were not previously in pocession of, they will build a house. We have seen it throughout the years. It it always there for everyone to see. So, those in the know will say that there is nothing wrong with that. I respectfully disagree. Unfortunately, impunity here is a well guarded tradition. This is usually also the case with these same people, who have not even declared their assets in the first place.
