Then buy a one way ticket to Burundi and live happily ever after. Easy.

@interlocking9992 Communists are mainly white people too. And white communists were also starving. One can make a reasonable assumption that it isn't about the color, but wherever there was communism there was poverty. Regardless of the color, communism doesn't work. There is hell on earth - it's called communist countries.

Even if you are too stupid and let EUropeans "steal" from you, then the problem is CLEARLY YOU!!! I will never respect lazy people who search for easy excuses and they try to always blame someone else for their lives. Keep crying, keep staying in the same position instead of moving on.

@larrymoore3627 If Africa becomes rich, then the whole world will benefit. Everyone knows that but lazy fools.

In our times wealth isn't in natural resources. If you keep crying about history, you create a new generation of whiners and people who believe that they'll never make it. And exactly your mentality which will keep you forever poor. If that's how you want to be, it's ok with me. My country was also colonized by the ottomans for 400 years. Then was occupied by nazis and then civil war. Our artifacts are still in the british museum. But I will never accept that kind of LOSER mentality for myself and my country. I'll always look forward on what I can do now, instead of crying about the past.

Canada was a colony, not a colonizer.

You need to understand it: corruption was bigger in communist countries. And if you haven't lived it, try talking to someone from communist country. Or just buy a one way ticket to North Korea and Cuba to see how it's done.

You are the fool if you want to get out of poverty relying on natural resources. That's a lazy and fool's dream.

Come on now, we were 400 years under the ottomans. We can keep crying or we can be adults about it and get better. I don't accept the victim mentality. It keeps people poor.
