GiulliameII: Totally didn't see that.  My bad. Guess you're a herdsman now.
Sounds real tough. It'll help to know what it is, although I see how it'll be pointless to reveal if help can not be provided right away.
I think the fella above already said what needs to be said. I think you should hold on to the things that bring you respite right now, however momentary it is.
Brilliant mind, brilliant man. Huge loss to mankind. Huge loss to whoredom.
Be well & don't die. Beware of Some of us who barter eloquence for specious and casuistic teachings </devils-advocate> |

Politics › Re: Fuel Scarcity Persists In Nigeria Almost One Year After Subsidy Removal by Westves: 11:23am On May 02, 2024*. Modified: 12:50pm On May 02, 2024 |
IbeOkehie: The USA only started subsidies AFTER it became a rich country through applying free market principles. Now that the USA has been paying a lot of subsidies for decades, their economy is going stagnant. In fact the USA and Nigeria have EXACTLY the same problems but at different levels.
Elites everywhere NEVER lose. You can NEVER prevent them from enjoying "unfair" advantage...some get it by raw talent or effort, some via connections or inheritance, some by corruption. They can't be stopped. Trying to redistribute their wealth by taxes or subsidy simply creates POVERTY. It never works because of the human character.
Nigeria has STOLEN and distributed the wealth of the Niger Delta and other crude oil and natural gas producing communities for many decades. How far? RESULT....Poverty Capital of the World 
Most importantly, Nigerians especially the university graduates, are very IGNORANT, unreasonable, entitled and hubristic. That's why they voted for a party whose leaders told them "there's nothing like fuel subsidy, fuel subsidy doesn't exist."
Fuel subsidy that has been paid since 1973!!! A subsidy that's always been one of the largest government expenditures, and people couldn't figure out the man was lying.
President Buhari that said fuel subsidy doesn't exist was Petroleum Minister in the 1970s and he negotiated fuel subsidy with the IMF as President in 1984. Just Google! And Nigerians still voted for him...very, very STUPID vote and they're getting exactly the suffering they deserve. The least Nigerians can do is NOT vote for bad leaders and then DEFEND their votes....that's democracy.
Good Luck to Nigerians  I respect most of what you share here but the last paragraph of this tirade is uncharacteristically shallow and myopic. That aside, I have a few questions: 1) why do you imprint all your posts with "good luck to Nigerians"? Aside the fact that it'd be more ergonomic to leave it in your signature, I wonder if it is intended as a genuine or sarcastic remark. I'm inclined to believe it's the latter, which brings me to my next question 2) why do you fretfully compose impassioned posts, stay abreast, and engage in lengthy arguments over a country you've repeatedly declared as doomed and a zoo? You have made boast about cutting off all ties, so I wonder why the fuss. Shouldn't all that energy be spent on forums discussing avenues to better your naturalized nationality? 3) I wonder the reason those of you in the diaspora, touted to constitute our brightest minds, would rather shove the white man's shit (quite literally), abdicating the seemingly rudimentary responsibility of fixing their homeland once and for all. So in your opinion, what is the barrier? Why is it easier and less shameful to throw stones? I mean, I don't dispute the perfection of the life you've bought overseas, or that we are worse off. But I have so many questions. Isn't that cowardice and lazy weakling what justifies whatever shabby manner you guys are being treated in foreign lands and even our embassies? Why are you comfortable with it but come to whine online as things continue to go awry? 4) if you had omnipotent powers, is there an actionable plan of things you'd do differently? I read where you admitted not to have a solution to the primary education and health challenges. But in a more holistic sense, we have proven a gross deficit at anything in general (not just governance). But it does start with governance and cascade down. So sequel to question 3, if you were to think in terms of solutions rather than criticisms, what would you change and where would you start? |

1) no penalties, accountability, or consequences when caught
2) it's their way of getting back at the system that put them in a position to exert power
3) sheer greed
4) for cultural, institutionalised purposes ie your own people think you're not smart for underutilising the opportunity of a lifetime
5) poverty –both mentally and financially |

DonroxyII:
.. You too like to dey Laugh for my matter ... No be sense I talk  The words I bolded are esoteric. I heard that "chuachua" in an entirely different context, so it was humorous seeing it used like you did I neither believe in afterlives nor reincarnations. I'm excited by some of the unexpected word combos you use. But merely "liking" the post won't highlight what about it Fascinated me; coupled with fact that doing so may inaccurately convey agreement |

GiulliameII: My favourite patron of Night women. You good? There was a concerning dairy post a while back. Currently fighting a gruesome battle with the grammar nazi part of me, to deny your insinuation that I'm a fulani milkman On a serious note, I'm still teetering precariously tbh. That thought comes in flashes. Was relatively happy today but something bad happened and those feelings were briefly rejuvenated. On the surface, it's the flimsiest things that tip me over. Very superficial errors by unsuspecting people I interact with But they remind me of the deeper, underlying problems I have that can be overwhelming or that I can't see a way out of. The blackout days feel like drowning in a dark hole but it's those arbitrary, peripheral encounters that really trigger the crises |
