My dearest @ybdfrancis thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.

I agree with many of the here exposed thoughts, yet I think that you're still being naïve when thinking one country can develop just by proper management.

My, with great sorrow I must tell you that there are countries that are meant to be undeveloped, yours is one of these, mine is another one: I come from Venezuela.

My personal experience with communism taking over my country, and many people having to flee taught me that the "poor management" is not something that just happens by itself.

Instead, it is a very structured and thoroughly planned set of social measures taken on purpose because poverty is the most profitable business both economically and socially. When people are in need you can sell them solutions that enrich you as the elite often does (may this elite be domestic governors, or even foreign "friendly" countries) and also you may appear as a savior while doing so.

Reality hurts, but the good thing about life, is that your life belongs only to yourself, and just as you are thinking way beyond the people that surrounds you (your friend is an example of these people) you also have in your hands the capability and aptitude to find a solution for yourself, for your family and for your life.

Please, be careful. Ideas are the most powerful weapons of history. Just for ideas, a lot of people have been sacrificed throughout human history.

Good luck, friend.

Sincerely,

- EvM
