There's not a good lot of investments to be made in anything that has regards to Africa. It's pretty hard to get low functioning people to stop reproducing, the best bet one could have is to theoretically teach them sexual education, but Africans don't tend to care very much about education to begin with.

You could stop aid to Africa, which could certainly have some results but in the long term it would mean that Africa would theoretically readjust it's markets due to lack of mal-investment and actually have functional economies, lest they revert back to socialist governments (which in your goal would be the more preferable outcome).

>You're clearly not an expert on law since you think it's legitimate to sue someone for using a metaphor to describe a general feeling of intolerance.

Kek, I studied it, you muppet. Not that it matters, because I wasn't talking about positive law at all. Here in Germany at least, it would only count as an insult, depending on whether the judge was a Young Socialist and if he's having a bad day. But that doesn't matter.

>As for reasonable and ordinary definitions, lawyers talk about that all the time. You are not very well informed about anything.

Oh, I know these definitions. We call our equivalent "Anstandsgefühl aller billig und gerecht Denkenden". It's an open secret that this formula is so vague that it's inapplicable, and that the judges can do with it whatever they want. In practice, it's all about casuistic.

I don't think it's as rare as you say to have words take their ordinary meaning in legal contexts. Anyway we're not even talking about a legal context. We're talking about, in a normal context could you call Ayn Rand a right libertarian according to the normal usage of the words?

 No.69788

>>69786

What's the alternative? Building up the industries and waiting ten years until products are as cheap as they would be if they were just imported? This is already harmful in itself, and it also ensure that there are fewer resources available to be invested. Also, if the tariff does not differentiate between imported capital or consumption goods, then the capital has to be created from scratch, whereas otherwise, they could import it for cheap.

Again, it helps to think of an extreme scenario: You have a bunch of neanderthals. You can either open up trade with them, maybe hire them as movers or buy some sabertooth pelts, or you can fence them in to give them an incentive to accumulate capital. Obviously, the latter would be a bad idea.

Discouraging companies from sending gibs, lobbying to prevent gibs.

End gibs and Africa would almost instantly become more prosperous within a decade tops as the warlords lose power and a lawyer's signiature stops costing $500 just to start a business. As they become more prosperous, their birth rates will rapidly decline. If you really have the money/want to speed up the process, give microloans and such to African businesses to help them skip over or shorten their industrialization phases. It's literally that easy, OP. Africa is a socialist shit hole.

Kiva fucks over their borrowers with shit like 35% interest over the course of the loan, but is more trustworthy overall if not more hipster-oriented. Zidisha puts you face-to-face with your borrower and lets you establish more charitable loan rates (usually about 5%), and typically has a greater return-on-profits per loan (though a lower loan repayment rate depending on country), but requires larger investments if you want to get involved with it.

I recommend Kiva for first-time loaners since it's more user-friendly and you're still doing noticeable and traceable good for people in third world countries, and you're pretty much guaranteed to get your money back. Put aside like $25/month for Kiva and you'll make your money back plus maybe $20-$50/year. I recommend Zidisha for people who want actual transparency and to profit from their loans, but I'd also warn that if you aren't involved in the loaning or financial industries, you're gonna have a hard time getting used to the setup early on, and be papered to drop $50-$200 initially with a much larger return on investment down the line. Kiva is your bloodsucking Jew who's unintentionally doing good while Zidisha is your libertarian paradise microloan land that no one actually understands if they're not directly in the business of making microloans.

Sub-sahara to be sub-sahara indefinitely or for sub sahara to actually start to get better after a period of getting even worse?
