POLITICIANS ARE LIKE BAD SCIENTISTS
We’ve all seen it. Politicians make a slew of pre-election promises, get elected to deliver on their vows, but leave office, washing their hands of their responsibility to constituents. Vusi Thembekwayo, a public speaker, author and businessman, attempts to explain this phenomenon in a podcast interview hosted on @cliffcentralcom.
He likens politicians to scientists who run experiments in their labs, then walk out before the results are ready. According to Vusi, as their time in office concludes, it's as if politicians have orchestrated a captivating performance, only to fade away before the repercussions of their choices fully unfold.
Take Kenya or Zambia as examples. Their respective former presidents, Uhuru Kenyatta and Edgar Lungu, promised grand transformations of their countries. They both had insatiable appetites for international loans to finance construction projects. But, as the curtains closed on their respective tenures, citizens and successors were left to deal with a host of challenges: Depleted government coffers, skyrocketing inflation and plunging currencies that sent debt repayment costs soaring.
As former US operative John Perkins describes in his book, "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man," the United States controls many leaders, by first convincing them to take out unpayable loans for projects that don't benefit the masses.
Why do you think might this be happening? Let us know your thoughts.
