The very sad story of Zimbabwe seems to be continuing. Both the political and economic crises remain virulent and there seems to be no end in sight. One of the more striking aspects of this issue is inflation. 231 million percent is an ungodly number when put into the context of inflation. It seems hard to discern what is more insane, the inflation rate or the lack of action by the global community on behalf of the people of this country.

yes. possible. and its ever so climbing as we speak.. remember when bread cost 2 million not 20 million zmd?? aww the good old days.. now they can't even afford a drop of water (if there even is water)..but they're africans, so why bother? Oh, wait, did I mention the cholera outbreak in harare.. i thought that was confined to, hmm lets see, 1920? It's a sad, sad world my friend and unfortunately it is only going to get worse before it becomes even remotely tolerable..
