Thank you brother. I enjoy watching someone get worked up for nothing. Others above have made their comments but yours seem to come out of fury. Cool down boy, we are not competing here.
Am known for giving vivid stories to drive my point home, so don't take every thing I say to be gospel truth, don't be incensed by a guy like me whom you have never met.
It like when a car cuts my lane forcing me to break very hard, I don't hoot. I actually say, "Hallo sir, have a good day", although he/she might not hear me. My argument, that driver does not know me, neither did he intend to offend me, he was sailing his turbo charged machine. Otherwise, if I get worked up, he spoils my day, my employees day, and probably my family.
So, cool down, lets discuss issues and not personalize the same.
Why is Sweden prosperous? Why are majority of Kenyan's poor? Why is China becoming the biggest economy in the world?
One, in prosperous nations, a group of talented individuals came together and decided to give direction to their country. When you let simple-minds like poundfoolish run the show, a big chunk of citizens who would have prospered fail to and even those who were doing pretty well start being pulled down by the scoundrels (where else would I use some of this terms without being offensive).
We have very many rich people in this country he got their wealth from working very hard. The poor however want a piece of that action but are not willing to work hard for it.
Sample this -:
Sonko has said he will not be taking his salary, that it will be sent directly to his constituents, aint that a direct corruption process? He should instead focus on facilitating the paying of taxes by MPs, demand better infrastructure for his constituency, device ways of eradicating crime in his area, there are so many things he can do. MPs are not elected in order to go earn a salary on behalf of your constituents. The salary is meant to ensure you focus your energies on legislation instead of engaging in dangerous businesses.
Poundfoolish, cheer up guy and share ideas here so that when I become the Senator of the greater Rift Valley, I would be more enlightened.
Peace boy.
Go overdrive in purchasing the goods when there's blood on the streets, expecially if the blood is your own
