true, but what DOES keep it afloat these days? Chinese aid? What else?


I would say mostly Chinese aid, yeah. I'm taken to understand they have a few for-profit business ventures going on as well. Plus, they've apparently had a good round of crops these past few years. But mostly Chinese aid, yeah.

"slipping in an anti-us vent" What's anti anything about the truth? The vast majority of politicians, in any country, are nothing more than pimps and prostitutes writ large. There are exceptions but they are as rare as roc eggs.

I couldn't agree more. Rat bastards, the lot of them.

Winning an election doesn't demonstrate competency to govern, it demonstrates competency to win elections. Democracy ain't all it is cracked up to be.
