Thank you Yawe for providing the definition. It is just hilarious!<br>

However, you raise an important point on our inability to put content in a searchable format. Maybe we will need to take this discussion further after the 'campaign period'.<br>

If he meant that we should have seen it coming then he is a master of contradiction.<br>
<br>What is happening around Lake Victoria must be stopped. If indeed this were businessmen, then they need not spend money to silencing politicians. Infact some politicians speak like Robert. "Our people are lazy". This is a grave matter. We cannot fight poverty by telling our
people to compete in a 200 meter race when the vistors are starting at 100 meter spot (Capital unlimited) and we cannot vouch on the sources of their immense financial strength.<br><br>The impact of excess liquidity in the market affects everyone through inflation and inflated property prices as well as rent. You do not need an economist to tell you this.<br>
<br>I do not blame Robert's puritanical reaction. This is typical of us when we fail to look at a global picture. If it wasn't the fact that the official "campaign" is over I would have spent more time on the economic implications of the issue at hand.<br>
