Surely, Ghanaians deserve better managers of their national economy?

Surely, dear critical-reader,  Ghanaians deserve better managers of their national economy? Even an ignoramus and uneducated old fool like me can see that, oooo,  Ghanafuor - and that's saying something,  aankasa,  oooo, lol. Haaba. Hmmm, 3y3asem, oooo...

With the greatest respect,  until we step out of the shadow of conventional economic thinking,  we shall continue along the thorn-strewn ruination-path, paved with good intentions,  leading us inexorably to the  hell on earth that is a kafkaesque Anansesemkrom, oooo,  Ghanafuor. Yooooooo...

To start off, let us incentivise the whole of our agricultural sector, to ensure food security and abundant healthy organic produce, at a time when climate change is negatively impacting rural Ghana, by making the whole sector, not just cocoa farming, tax free, and  replicate Issa Ouedraogo's unique profit sharing climate smart organic farming social impact agribusiness model, B-BOVID, nationwide, to transform rural Ghana into a happy, healthy and prosperous part of our homeland Ghana, through empowering smallholder farmers to  bootstrap their way to financial independence, by bedrocking their farms on a profit-sharing agroforestry ethos.

Furthermore, unless, and, until, the entrepreneurs  importing crappy cheap products,  for fat profits, are incentivised to switch to exporting our world-class standard manufactured goods, our balance of payments will always be negative. Simple. That is why we have a junk currency that the world likes to make fun of. Simple. That's not rocket science, surely?

And, if we continue to hinder entrepreneurs who take enormous risks to establish factories in Ghana,  and employ workers to help them produce goods that they currently import for fat profits, by piling  tax after tax on their import substitution  manufacturing enterprises, those business will continue to  fail, make their workforces redundant, and add to the misery being experienced by the masses.

Endlessly taxing entrepreneurs is  economically  stunting, because failed businesses laying off workers, will always  lead to high unemployment rates, which could one day culminate in a sudden  social explosion that will ruin our beautiful and bountiful homeland Ghana, by setting it back decades, oooo, Ghanafuor. Yooooooo...

Let us therefore focus on forcing our hard of hearing  ruling elites to cut down the intolerable waste in the public sector. Full stop. The bald truth, is that  high-level corruption is literally draining the very lifeblood, out of Mother Ghana, oooo, Ghanafuor. Haaba.  

Above all, dear critical-reader, we must  cure the addiction of our hard-of-hearing  ruling-elites, to taxing hardworking entrepreneurs risking their investments, in a byzantine system hijacked by state-capture  big-thieves-in-high-places, who are robbing Mother Ghana, blind, in broad daylight, with total impunity, and are getting away with it, just to send their personal net worth to stratospheric heights,  at Ghanaian  society's expense, and compromising the overall well-being of the enterprise Ghana, in the process, ooooo, Ghanafuor. We deserve better, wai. Enough, really is enough, now. Full stop.  Case closed. Yooooooo...
