This "article" from the New York Times discusses the crisis of the healthcare system in Zimbawe without once mentioning what caused said crisis--the socialistic, racist policies of Zimbawe’s dictator Robert Mugabe. It calls Zimbawe’s government "authoritarian" exactly once, but the health crisis was apparently created by a mysteriously-appearing inflation, as well as an equally mysterious exodus of health care workers. (Hint, inflation is a direct result of government policies; the doctor’s escape is a direct result of both a hopeless situation for doctors in Zimbawe--they are expected to be selfless servers of the collective, and of Zimbawe’s anti-Afrikaner madness--white doctors are leaving in droves.)

The New York Times (all the news that fit our ideology), remains as disgusting as ever.

#7  There was a report that ambulance drivers would transport a patient, but only if the patient/family could provide the fuel.

Same with the hearse-drivers.

#6  To each according to his need; from each according to his...... Wait! Where are you going,doc? We'll take care of all your needs. About $10 a month should do it.
And this is why Communism needs stringent emigration policies and high walls.

#1  quick note - IIUC most white Rhodesians were not Afrikaners, but Brits. Rhodesia was founded by Cecil Rhodes largely to keep the land out of the hands of the Traansvall Afrikaners.
