This is sad precisely because it's so true. I wish poor countries were free to make trades on terms that were more fair. But that's not the world we live in.

In any case, I applaud Ghana for trying.

I really do wish them luck, but I'd advise them to ready their internal security services. (I suspect there will be a lot of unrest there in the very near future.) And I'd also advise beefing up the quality of their healthcare facilities. Because I think they may see a rise in cancer diagnoses among leaders in their steward classes over the next few years.
