Mboge,

You talking to me? Think I have time for a mud brain like u. Hell no. I just shrug off the adjectives you use to insult me. U and Haruna have stooped so low, but it does not mean I will not be forced to respond in like manner. I guarantee you, I have more of those nasty words in my vocabulary. 
Who wants to be a revolutionary, me? hell no. Matter of fact, I am embasassed about my past emmersion in so called socialist ideology. It is a dead end. You and your Dear Leader, Kim il Sallah, or shall I say Mullah Sallah will never lead our country. That will be over my dead body. 
The quote below comes out of the brain thrust of Mullah Sallah recently. If you understand the language, you will know it calls for the establishment of cooperatives, an element of socialist economy that was tried in USSR, China, CUBA, North Korea etc etc and it failed everywhere. What happened to letting the market place determine producer prices, rather than the cooperative price fixing your Mullah is advocating here. Halifa's understanding of economics is limited, but to a person like you, he has infinite knowledge; because to you, he makes the clouds thunder, the sky light up, and he has the power to perform miracles. 

"establishment of a strong farmers’ Cooperative whose leaders would sit down with those responsible for marketing the produce to discuss all the administrative and logistical cost of storage and transportation from buying stations to the purchasers abroad. The sum would be computed and subtracted from the World Market Price and the outstanding sum would be made known to the farmer. Union and Marketing agency would then negotiate to determine a fair producer price. They may take into consideration the advantage of deducting a reasonable sum from the balance for the purchase of farming implements and fertilizer which would be sold to the farmers at subsidized prices to make them available and affordable. The sum left would then be relied on to determine the producer price. In short, consensual administration would enable the whole process of determining producer price of the products of the farmers to be characterized by transparency, accountability and consensus building between farmers and marketing agencies" 

Mullah KIm Il Sallah.

I think I will need to write a full blown commentary about what PDOIS stands for in terms of policy and how it will ruin our country. Make that two commentaries; the other will be: Tribalism in government and politics. The Gambian experience 1965-2010. How the Wollofs, Mandinka and Jola Public Officials perpetuated poverty and underdevelopment in The gambia.
