Let Africa Sink
-
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Couldn't agree with the man more.

I'm actually certain that you don't have a clue what he even meant by that.

Just as long as I have you validating the correctness of my assertions by disagreeing with them, I can't be too fucked up.
Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

Why don't we take this attitude with every country? If you mess with us, then we'll mess with you, until then you're on your own.

Are you a mind reader? Perhaps the message is like just too deep man, the pursuit of happiness...

Pretty much agreed with what you've posted today, ergo you must be really f&&&ed up man. Keep out of the sun and don't choke on yer pills.

I have been feeling that way for years. I think the only solution is bringing back the British Empire and re colonising the place.

Maybe discussion should be, compare and contrast South Africa with the rest of the continent?

It means that you should be free to struggle to be happy. It ins't an affirmation that any one has an inherent right to actually be happy.

You agree that you're a racist?

Frankly, I think the world would be amazed at how quickly the Africans could solve their own problems if the world would just leave them alone to do it. Africa, along with black ghettos in America, etc, are nothing more than monuments to the racism inherent in collectivist politics.

I am also inclined to agree with the view taken in that article. Africa must learn to help itself before the rest of the world can help it. The current approaches benefit no one but the warlords and thieves.

I agree. I don't think the idea of letting Africa sink - or swim, as the case may be - on its own goes far enough, but like 500 lawyers at the bottom of the Potomac, it's a good start. Then let's get the hell out of Asia, including, but not limited to the Middle East. Then evict the UN, and drop out of the World Bank.

If that's all you have going for you, you are pretty well fucked.
