  We need a mixed economy .The failure of our economy has been greatly from the so called private sector.Apart from crony capitalism , Ghanaians are afraid"people .They are risk averse. What irritates me is the NPP apologists who shout capitalism, free enterprise, privatize but then turn to government .Oh government must do this and that .NPP gurus show guts and lead by example.Stop condemning socialism from the roof tos when you are just State leeches yourselves

  Kojo T, you are right on point. npp annoys me to the bone. A wonderful system as capitalist economy, these guys merely make noise with it. With 8 years in government, if they had really practiced what they proudly assume to be their guiding principle, ndc would shamefully be coiled in their ineptitude in opposition.
  
  The digression of npp from the principles of capitalism emboldened ndc....and the result is what we're experiencing.
  
  Sadly npp's understanding of capitalism and laissez fait is taking from the state to build personal wealth. Totally balderdash!

  YOU HAVE TOUCHED ON A SENSITIVE MATTER!
  NOW I WANT TO PHOOPHOO YOUR ASSERTION BY EXPOSING YOUR IGNORANCE OF THE TERRAIN AFRICAN ECONOMY! TAKE FOR INSTANCE A PLACE LIKE NIGERIA, WHOSE ECONOMY IS THE BIGGEST IN AFRICA ALONG WITH SOUTH AFRICA. THE GENERALS IN NIGERIA HAVE SPRUNG UP ALL KINDS OF BILLIONAIRES WHOSE FINANCIAL HISTORY AT BEST CAN NOT STAND COMPLIANCE IN CIVILIZED DEVELOPED COUNTRIES! THEY ARE SURROGATES OF STOLEN MONEY FROM THE PEOPLE , AND THE IDEA IS THAT MOST COMPANIES YOU CONSIDER AS PRIVATE SECTOR ENTERPRISES ARE IN FACT BUSINESSES OF THE POWER BROKERS WHO BRING IN FOREIGN PARTNERS WHO ACTUALLY DID NOT BRING IN ANY MONEY INTO THE COUNTRY, BUT ARE IN WITH THE STOLEN MONEY BY THE LOCAL PARTNERS. NOW THEY ARE NIGERIA OR GHANA EMPLOYING THE PEOPLE WITH THE PEOPLE'S MONEY!!AND AS PRIVATE ENTERPRISES THEY WILL NOT CONSIDER THE PROSPERITY OF THE COUNTRY! AS IT CLEAR THAT THEIR FOCUSES ARE ON MAXIMIZING PROFITS AND INTAKES OF THE THEIR COMPANIES! SO IT IS CLEAR THAT THE PRIVATE SECTOR CAN NEVER BE THE ENGINE OF GROWTH IN AFRICA, IN EFFECT THE SO CALLED PRIVATE SECTORS ARE STILL WITH PEOPLE IN THE GOVTS. ONLY THAT IT BELONGS TO THEM AND THEIR FAMILIES AND THE BOGUS INVESTORS!! LIKE DANGOTE OF NIGERIA, IT IS A VIVID EXAMPLE OF SUCH ACTUAL STATE FUNDED ENTERPRISES , BUT OWNED BY POWER BROKERS OF AFRICAN GOVTS. IT IS BETTER FOR THE GOVTS. TO BE TRUTHFUL AND CONTINUE WITH SOE (STATE OWNED ENTERPRISES ) AS BEFORE. SO THE DOWN TRODDEN CAN BENEFIT AND HAVE A SENSE OF SHARE HOLDING IN THESE ENTERPRISES, THAT IS NOT TO SAY TRULY PRIVATE ENTERPRISES COULD NOT SPRING UP!! LET US STOP THESE DECEPTIVE TREND AND BE TRUE , OR ELSE YOU WILL CONTINUE TO VISIT HOSPITALS WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AT YOUTHFUL AGE FOR THE STOLEN MONEY , BECAUSE FOR EVERY CEDI YOU STEAL SOME ONE SUFFERS, AND GOD WILL NOT BLESS YOU WITH GOOD HEALTH . AND THE ENDING TOO IS BAD, SO WHY NOT CHANGE AND DO GOOD?

  Don't allow UN to misled you to planning based on expanding urban areas. Maintain urban areas but expand rural and make it like urban.

  This article provides some food for thought which should be embraced by our policy makers. It makes sense that Ghana takes the idea to build its own economy. The old ways of building our economy need be changed, for sure.
