  RAWLINGS AND NDC ARE A CURSE ON GHANAIANS. RAWLINGS HAD TO RULE GHANA AT GUN POINT OTHERWISE WHICH CIVLIZED GHANAIAN WOULD WANT TO BE RULED BY A LEBANESE BASTARD SON OF A PROSTITUTE?

  During the pervious administration, there was a seminar for home growth policy but we allowed ourselves to be deceit by the so called reputable IMF and World Bank in massing the economy now they are singing a new song. I only hope that this time the government of Ghana will listen to their own people in creating wealth for Ghanaian.

  Although I personally agree with the points raised by the Economist & his view that it will take 3 year's to turnaround the fortunes of the economy. The main problems that the Government will face is managing the short patience of the same electorate that voted them into power. Also, ensuring that the economic growth trickles & benefits the people.

  OPAYIN ECONOMIST AT THE UNIVERSITY OF GHANA, WHY DOI YOU ALWAS TRY TO MISINTERPRET WHAT THE ECONOMIC TEXT BOOJS TEACHES.
  
  AN ECONOMIST STUDIES HOW A SOCIETY USES LAND, LABOUR, SCARCE RESOURCES AND ''''MACHINERY'''TO PRODUCE GOODS FIR VITA SERVICES IN A COUNTRY.
  
  EVEN THEN HOW CAN A COUNTRY THAT HAS COCOA BEANS AND RAW MAERIALS EXPORT ECONOMY BE IN THE POSTION IN THREE YEARS TO HAVE A SOUND ECONOMY.
  
  
  ITS SAD THAT, YOU FOLKS ALWAYS TRY TO TWIST THE MINDS OF THE DISDADVANTAGED, LESS FORTUNATE,IGNORANT AND INNOCENT PEOPLE WITH SUCH IRRATIONAL STATEMENTS.
  
  ITS ONLY WHEN THE SO CALLED NOISY EDUCATED ARE CONVINCED OF THE IMPORTANCE OF TECNOLOGY,SCIENTIFIC INNOVATION, CURIOUSITY, INVENTION,DISCOVERY AND CREATIVITY SHALL WE BE IN THE POSITION TO TURN THE WHEELS OF INDUSTRIALIZATION AND TO PROPEL ECONOMOC GROWTH, INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT AND TO STIMULATE '''EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES, INCOME, CONSUMER SPENDING'''' AND BETTER STANDARDS OF LIVING IN THE COUNTRY.
  
  SAD FOR THE COUNTRY TO HAVE ALL THESE SO CALLED NOISY ECONOMISTS WITH BIG DEGREES AND PHD TITLES AND STILL DO NOT KNOW HOW A NATION FUNCTIONS, WHERE WE ARE AND WHERE WE GOING IN THE 21st CENTURY.
  
  DEGREES AND PHD TITLES IN THE MIDST OF ECONOMIC BACKWARDNESS, UNDERDEVLOPMENT AND A COUNTRY FULL OF POOR PEOPLE SOUNDS VERY SHAMEFUL.
  
  HOME WORK FIRST BEFORE PODIUM DISCUSSIONS.
  
  EXCUSE ME TO SAY, THE NATION GHANA CANNOT PROGRESS AND ADVANCE WITH THESE EMPTy HEADED EDUCATED DERELICTS.
  
  PARDON ME.

  A POLYTECHNIC INSTRUCTOR TURNED LECTURER
  AT THE SO CALLED TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY CREATED BY THE NDC GOVERNMENT.
  
  WHAT IS SAD AND PATHETIC, THESE VOCATIONAL AND TECHNICAL SCHOOLS THAT WERE TURNED UNIVERSITIES, DO NOT HAVE WELL EQUIPPED WORKSHOPS AND LABORATORIES FOR RESEARCH AND TECHNICAL PROJECTS IN THE MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING SUBJECTS.
  
  A MAD ADVENTURE INITIATED TO DESTROY VOCATIONAL AND TECHNICAL INSTITUTIONS THE ECONOMIC BACKBONE IN DEVELOPED COUNTRIES FOR PRODUCING QUALITY SKILLED WORKFORCE(ARTISANS AND TECHNICIANS) FOR RUNNING THEIR DYNAMIC INDUSTRIES,MANUFACRURING AND PROCESSING PLANTS TO PRODUCE INNOVATIVE PRODUCTS FOR WORLD MARKETS.
  
  HOPELESS IN THE THINKING.
